The Hollywood Reporter is going weekly.
In a move that's been widely speculated, Richard Beckman, CEO of THR parent e5 Global Media, announced to the New York Times that, beginning in October, the daily publication will become a glossy, “large-format” weekly magazine.
A daily digital version — in PDF form — will be published for current print subscribers, the paper said.
THR’s current circulation of 47,000 will be increased to 60,000, Beckman said, and the newsstand price will jump from $2.99 per issue to $5.99. The annual subscription rate will drop to $249 from its current $300.
Beckman did not immediately return a request for comment.
