Who Reads New York Magazine?
New York is eagerly awaited each week by readers seeking the energy and excitement of the city itself in a magazine with smart writing, beautiful photography and sophisticated design. New York‘s audience of more than 1.7 million readers each week reaches far beyond its namesake city. Readers come to the magazine for the latest news and social trends, to explore the city’s cultural happenings, and for a navigational tool for all aspects of city life.

  • Intelligencer: Packed with news, gossip, and commentary, the magazine’s Intelligencer section provides a snapshot of what New Yorkers are talking about this week. Look for everything from sharp Q&A’s with newsmakers, 100-person polls, and essays from opinion leaders, anchored by the magazine’s “Party Lines” page where celebrities weigh in on the questions of the day.
  • Columns: Kurt Andersen on the political and cultural landscape, James J. Cramer on finance, John Heilemann on national politics, and Will Leitch on sports–New York‘s regular columnists offer original “thought scoops” on the antics of the players that matter in the city.
