Bloomberg launches weekend edition

Executive editor Katherine Bell of Bloomberg News writes about its new weekend edition.

Bell writes, “That’s why I’m so excited to introduce you to Bloomberg’s new Weekend Edition. Every week, we’ll bring you a collection of ideas — essays, reviews, interviews and stories — that explore the fascinating places where finance, life and culture meet, and transport you in surprising and valuable ways.

“To help you weave more reading and thinking time into your days, we’ve created a companion playlist for you to listen to while you’re doing other things. Each Saturday morning, we’ll send you an email guide to that week’s stories (sign up here). And in a few weeks we’ll debut a new Sunday newsletter, The Forecast, to prepare you for what might happen in the week ahead and beyond. Our goal is to send you into Monday refreshed, full of new energy and ideas.

“Like the weekend itself, our new edition will be a work in progress. We want to hear from you. What do you think? What else would you like to see?”
