The New Yorker Launches The Business Pages - A New Online Hub for All Things Business
NEW YORK, Feb. 20, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- The New Yorker's new online hub for business coverage and commentary, The Business Pages, launches today on newyorker.com. It will feature business content from the magazine, as well as original Web content from Malcolm Gladwell, James Surowiecki, John Cassidy, Amy Davidson, Ken Auletta, Tim Wu, and many others. Xerox is the exclusive launch sponsor of The Business Pages. Weekly features on the site include "The Idea of the Week," an infographic visualization of an important business or financial issue; "The Number," a deep dive into an economic indicator, data point, or other figure that best captures what's happening that week; a video series hosted by James Surowiecki, tied to his column in the magazine, The Financial Page; and "How Do They Make Money?," a series that asks how different people make their livings--from street musicians to shoeshine men to fishermen. The hub will also provide links to classic New Yorker stories about business.
"Our hope is that The Business Pages becomes a place for readers who care about economics, people, and, most important, ideas," said Nicholas Thompson, the editor of newyorker.com. "We want to do what The New Yorker's business coverage has done for eighty-eight years, but with Internet speed, to react quickly to business trends and breaking news."
"The New Yorker is an iconic brand evolving to meet the growing need for digital 'always on' news and information," said Christa Carone, the chief marketing officer for Xerox. "We see The Business Pages as a complement to our brand transformation, using technology and innovation to deliver services that simplify how work gets done."
Today's posts include Ken Auletta on the future of television; Tim Wu on Apple and the debate over open and closed software companies; John Cassidy on the economics of the sequester debate; and James Surowiecki on the problem with the banking industry. We also are unlocking, for the first time, Kelefa Sanneh's feature on the Scotch industry, from the print magazine.
