- Title
The Contribution of City Magazines to the Urban Information Environment.

- Abstract
American city magazines today must appeal to audiences who have new ways to find community information. User-generated digital content and social media have supplanted not just newspapers but also city magazines' service stories and restaurant listings. City magazines also have new opportunities for in-depth coverage that newspapers can no longer afford. This content analysis of nineteen US print city magazines examines their contribution to their communities' information environment, particularly their mix of coverage, approaches to hard news, and representations of people and places. The study suggests ways to sustain these magazines during industry and technological changes through deeper, diverse coverage.
