From Hold the Front Page:

“A Scottish weekly newspaper publisher has launched a new online only lifestyle ‘e-zine’.

DNG Media’s new monthly ‘SW Living’ will be features-based and offer a broader perspective on life in Dumfries and Galloway.

The first cover star is Lord Seb Coe who toured the area by bicycle during a visit to discuss fitness with local children and promote the 2012 Olympics.

The e-zine will be written and produced by journalists, photographers and sub-editors on the company’s four newspapers: Annandale Herald, Moffat News, Annandale Observer and Dumfries Courier.

Chief reporter Fiona Reid told HTFP: “We launched our websites last year so this is the next step in extending our multimedia platforms.

“We only have limited space for features in our newspapers so this is a chance to broaden things and publish more features and photos that don’t make it into the papers.

“It’s a mix of lifestyle, health, beauty and fashion as well as anything we would want to expand on which has been in the papers and has got more potential.”

Each edition of the e-zine will be online during the first week of the month.”

TransportMatterss “e-zine” is a year old today!
