The Economist to Launch Bimonthly Lifestyle Title

Media Week: The Economist plans to launch a bimonthly lifestyle magazine called 1843 aimed at readers relaxing on the weekend or while on holiday. It will be available from March 9 for $10 on newsstands, and as a stand-alone subscription. Emma Duncan, former deputy editor of The Economist, will serve as editor. The new title is named for the year The Economist was founded.
