Publisher, Media24 Lifestyle, says it has transferred the publishing rights to the creative living magazine Ideas\/Idees and the women\u2019s monthly L\u00e9\u00e9f to the respective former editors.<\/p>\n
This follows the announcement in November 2016 that Media24 would cease publishing these two titles and topCar, and relinquish its international licences to Top Gear and Grazia.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe couldn\u2019t wish for a better solution than Ideas\/Idees and L\u00e9\u00e9f remaining part of the local magazine media landscape; they are strong and well-established niche brands with highly engaged audiences,\u201d said Ishmet Davidson, GM of Media24 Print Media.<\/p>\n
Ideas\/Ideas will continue as a two-monthly printed and digital magazine in Afrikaans and English, with a social media offering. The first new issue is scheduled to be on shelves in March.<\/p>\n
L\u00e9\u00e9f\u2019s future will be digital only, with a new website – to be launched shortly – and a social media presence for the main brand, and social media only for its spin-off brand, Mooi soos \u2018n Beminde.<\/p>\n
