… and the LGBT media landscape continues to evolve. It was just over a month ago that Out magazine announced its new editor in chief.
This week, leading LGBT news magazine The Advocate announced the appointment of Jon Barrett to replace Anne Stockwell who is ending a 15-year stint editor-in-chief in June. Barrett was news editor at the publication from 1997-2003. He’s been at Cargo and O at Home as well as more recently at Windy City Times.
This is yet another change – and a continuation of positive momentum – for the magazine which is now owned by here!
The community buzz is building at this week’s announcement via bloggers and other online news sources.
It will be interesting to see where The Advocate goes after these recent changes. Although no specific plans have been made public, the news release points toward a new direction for the bi-monthly hard copy edition, especially in beefing up the pub’s online site to become a leading daily news resource
