Columbus, OH - Mar 16, 2009 - Outlook Media today announced that it will begin publication of a new monthly magazine, Outlook Columbus, in late April, with the first issue hitting newsstands in early May 2009. Outlook Media will cease publication of its weekly publication, Outlook Weekly, after the March 25, 2009 issue.
“We’ve always had a plan for creating a monthly publication to take the place of Outlook Weekly,” said Michael Daniels, Outlook Media co-publisher and business director. “Our advertisers are seeking a way to reach our readers with a publication that offers more rich content and long-term shelf life than a weekly tabloid can offer.”
Outlook Columbus Co-publisher and Editor-in-Chief Chris Hayes added that the monthly format allows the editorial staff to generate the expanded feature coverage that readers have longed for, while adding more of the creative content that they expect.
“The new magazine will be a progressive George meets Out,” Hayes said. “It will focus on the heart of our Cap City: politics, style, community and fun.”
Outlook Columbus will continue the tradition of being a free publication, serving the GLBT, allied and progressive communities in Central Ohio. Advertising packages are being developed, and all existing advertisers have the option to convert current contracts to the new schedule. New advertisers are expected to join with the new format and frequency.
The company will maintain its offices at 815 N High St in the Short North, with Hayes and Daniels serving as owner/operators. For more information, contact Michael Daniels, 614.268.8525 x3 or mdaniels@outlookmedia.com.
