At City Pride Publications, as well as 3sixty magazine, we also have a newspaper dedicated to Brighton and Hove’s 50,000 strong gay community…
What is one80news?
Brighton and Hove has been a diverse city with an estimated one in five residents being LGBT - making a gay community of 50,000 in our city. one80news is the only LGBT newspaper for the community. Its high standard of journalism brings the community breaking news reports, cutting edge features, well known personality interviews and a comprehensive scene and entertainment guide. In addition we have property, business, legal, classified and recruitment advertising pages.
Who reads it?
Our readership is the diverse LGBT reader, who has a keen interest in the community around them. They are very supportive to their community and are aware of current affairs and the world around them. They tend to be in the professional ABC1 market, with high spending power and are loyal to brands who support the LGBT community. They are influential people who have a say in living, working and speaking out for their community.
The technical stuff
One80news was launched in May 2007, it is published twice a month (usually first week and third week of the month) with a print run of 10,000 copies per month resulting in a readership of 26,000 people per month.
