International News Report London's Pink Paper Goes Glossy
London's main gay weekly newspaper, The Pink Paper, is
transforming itself into a glossy newsmagazine that will be sold
at newsstands instead of distributed free at gay venues.
"We are changing the Pink Paper from a tabloid newspaper to a glossy, full colour current affairs magazine similar to Time, Newsweek and the New Statesman," editors said in last week's issue. "Although the Pink Paper is one of the most well known community newspapers in the country, ironically, we're also the most invisible. Only those who visit gay bars and clubs ... get to read our coverage. Every other community newspaper from the Voice and Asian Times, to Irish World and Saga magazine is on sale in the high street. As the nature and scope of the gay world in the UK changes, we want to take our place on the news shelves too." The magazine will sell for about $2.60. The Pink Paper's owner, Chronos Publishing, is launching a new free listings publication called Rainbow Tickets to replace the Pink Paper in gay venues. It will include "pages of community, social, scene and club events, as well as comprehensive listings for theatre and cinema," they said. South Korea Deports People with HIV
