'Alternative' London paper to launch
Holdthefrontpage reports that "A new 'alternative' weekly newspaper aimed at 20 to 35 year olds is being launched in March 2005 in central London. The Line will be published by new start-up company Black Coffee Publishing and its concept is based on American 'alternative' newspapers such as the Village Voice in New York. A pilot issue was published in August 2004, and feedback from this has been used to shape the new paper. Publisher Damian Kahya said: "It went out to 1,800 people in Soho and Holborn and we invited feedback"...
"The first issue of The Line is planned for March 31, and it will then be published every Thursday and distributed in Westminster, Clapham and Camden.
With a staff of eight, it will focus predominantly on arts and entertainment and will also include news-based features on London or international matters - staying away from Westminster politics - an alternative weekend planner, interviews and reviews."
