Out with the Old...Out magazine is in the midst of an editorial
redesign courtesy of its new owner, Liberation Publishing (publisher of the
Advocate), which bought the title in April. Few editorial staff members
have remained with the publication through the transition. Former New Yorker
editor Brendon Lemon has been named editor-in-chief, but office relocation and
staffing plans have not been finalized. Stay tuned for pitch tips. http://www.planetout.com. Source: Press Access.
