The State of LGBT Media
With a major conference of gay journalists meeting this weekend in San Francisco, we talk to several participants about the economic, political and social forces reshaping their industry.
Gay newspapers and magazines emerged in the 1950s and '60s, when LGBT voices and issues were virtually nonexistent in the mainstream press. Today, reporting on these issues is more prevalent and the role of publications aimed at the gay community is evolving.
Host: Dave Iverson
Guests:
- Frances Stevens, publisher and founder of Curve Magazine, a nationally distributed Lesbian magazine
- Mark Segal, publisher of The Philadelphia Gay News, the Philadelphia area's largest and oldest publication targeted to the LGBT community
- Matthew Bajko, assistant editor of the Bay Area Reporter, a San Francisco-based weekly gay newspaper founded in 1971
