Business Journal

Website Combines Cutting Edge Business and Political Reporting by Allen Johns
Two publications in New Hampshire have joined forces in order to launch a website integrating business and political News in the Northeastern state. For both the Nashua Telegraph and the New Hampshire Business Journal the site will mark the first attempt at a subscription-based online news service.
Titled “The Lobby”, subscriptions to the collaborative publication are on the pricey side, with yearly access charged at $199. To give potential readers a taste of what the site has to offer, the Telegraph and New Hampshire Business Journal have agreed to give free access to the site in the first two weeks after its 18 October launch date. Additionally, executives have implemented a sliding payment scale for multiple subscribers.
An executive at the Nashua Telegraph alluded to the purpose of the site in saying “the concept behind the Lobby was to bring additional focus and edge to state political and business coverage – two issues that have significant and unique audiences.” Judging by the access price, it would appear that the Telegraph/NHBJ publication believes that its “significant and unique audiences” will also be quite wealthy, to the tune of splashing out a few hundred dollars a year for weekly updates on political and business matters of concern to the state.
Not merely another government reportage site, the Lobby will be posting some riskier news stories, including political and economic predictions and forecasts and certain investigative journalism pieces. The collaboration seems part of a broader trend in American regional reporting to place better, more interactive information in the hands of the citizenry, in the hopes of combating apathy and giving greater control of state matters to those who matter most.
There are similar partnerships and news collaborations between traditionally diverse reporting bodies springing up all over the States, with free websites similar to the Lobby recently launched in Alabama and California. Given the price of the Lobby, one can expect subscription fees to cover set up and domain hosting costs with enough left over to deliver quality, cutting edge journalism to its select readership.
