WE WANT OUR FREE! SORT OF...


Just when you thought we got rid of the freesheet newspapers (I use the word 'newspaper' lightly) along comes another one.

London Weekly [a weekly publication - in case you hadn't guessed] is to launch on 1st February 2010, and is being backed with £10.5m in funding raised by Global Publishing Group, a partnership of five private investors.

The founders of new London newspaper The London Weekly have said it will launch on 1 February, and will be distribute to commuters on Friday and Saturday mornings at London Tube and main line stations, the London Weekly will have a website, launching on 20 December, an online radio station and an awards ceremony in July letting readers vote for their favourite attractions in London.

The new paper is backed with £10.5m in funding raised by Global Publishing Group, a partnership of five private investors... (I thought we were in a recession :/)
