News Magazines adds to portfolio

Marketing 22-Feb-06

News Magazines, the consumer publishing arm of News International, is planning to launch its third lifestyle title, Street Psychic.

The company unveiled weekly reality title Love it!, its first consumer
magazine, earlier this month. It is also planning a monthly homes and
interiors title, Inside Out, which is due to hit newsstands in

March.

There has been speculation that News Magazines is considering launching
a men's title since it hired Karl Marsden, former group commercial
director of IPC Ignite's men's magazines division, as its commercial
director last month.

No one at News International was available for comment.
