The 2019 Magazine of the Year Finalists Announced

Last year, we introduced a brand new honor at our Eddie & Ozzie Awards gala—Magazine of the Year. Despite many of the challenges print faces, magazines continue to evolve and change in tandem with the industry, and we felt it was important to recognize the very best in our community. And although Folio:’s mission has grown beyond our initial 1972 pledge to be “The Magazine for Magazine Management,” print media is still a core part of our DNA, and we are excited to announce this year’s five finalists, as well as the winner on the evening of October 30th. Our Eddie & Ozzie Awards are the most inclusive in publishing. The program honors the innovative and engaging editorial and design work (across every platform) happening in every corner of our industry—from four-figure circulation titles being created in a basement, to mass consumer brands with more than 20 million readers, no title is too big or small for the Eddie & Ozzie Awards. The inaugural Magazine of the Year winner was ESPN The Magazine, which has unfortunately since decided to cease its print magazine. However, that doesn’t diminish the incredible magazine it was for 21 years, and we are proud that we got to recognize it for its outstanding work in its penultimate year. So while we must sadly say goodbye to one magazine, now we get to celebrate a handful of titles that remind us that there is still plenty of life in print, and plenty of reason to celebrate its unique qualities. Here are this year’s... Continue reading at 'Folio Magazine'
