Here’s a quick heads up that the capital’s latest freesheet has launched online and on Twitter (@thelondonweekly).
Obviously it will be trying to succeed where its predecessors failed – and it looks like the London Weekly is not scared to experiment with new techniques. Adverstiment? Sounds intriguing.
Associated Newspapers’ freesheet, the London Lite, will publish its last edition on Friday 13 November, according to a release.
The decision follows a consultation with staff.
In August, News International, the UK newspaper division of News Corporation announced that it would close thelondonpaper, its free evening newspaper launched in 2006.
Meanwhile, the Evening Standard, in which Associated still has a minority share, switched from paid-for to free last month.
