The only LGBT newspaper in Memphis, Tenn., has ceased publication. Publishers of the Triangle Journal cited decreasing ad revenue and declining use of print media as the reasons for closing the publication, which has operated since 1990.
Out & About Newspaper and InsideOut, both based in Nashville, remain as the state’s only two LGBT publications.
According to Out & About Newspaper, officials from the Memphis Gay and Lesbian Community Center, where volunteers produced the Triangle Journal, will continue to provide information online.
“The group has also suspended the online version of the newspaper pending the construction of a new MGLCC Web site expected to launch in late summer,” reported Out & About. “However, the group plans to continue providing a monthly e-newsletter to subscribers as well as news updates through Facebook and Twitter. MGLCC officials could not be reached for comment by press time.”
News of the closure follows last month’s announcement that Window Media had shut down and abruptly closed its publications, including the Washington Blade and the Southern Voice.
