Never Mind That Date on the Cover—The New Republic Is Not Reducing Print Frequency Again

The New Republic‘s new issue features a date that might startle subscribers who remember when it was a sort-of weekly, then a sort-of biweekly, and have gotten used to its post-shakeup print schedule of ten times per year. “Fall 2015,” the new issue reads.

That’s not an indication of any further reductions, New Republic Editor-in-Chief Gabriel Snyder tells Washingtonian in an email. The print magazine still prints ten times per year, he says. This issue, says TNR spokesperson Erika Velazquez, is simply “a special issue focused on Higher Education in between our monthly issues.” The mag’s November issue will be on stands October 13, Snyder says.
