BusinessTN ceases publication, to be replaced by another

BusinessTN, a six-year-old magazine that covers Tennessee business, is stopping its print publication, writes editor Drew Ruble.

Ruble writes, “BusinessTN‘s brand of journalism is not going completely away. The brand will maintain a digital presence at www.businesstn.com, which will continue to serve as a vibrant daily repository of the most significant business news affecting Tennessee. Also, the magazine’s popular e-mail products — the BTN eBriefs and the BTN eWeekly — will continue.

“In BusinessTN‘s place, we will present a new publication focused on Middle Tennessee business, Nashville Post magazine. The new magazine piggybacks on the well-established breaking news business online source for the Nashville area, NashvillePost.com, a sister publication in the SouthComm Publishing corporate family. Now entering its tenth year as a respected business news outlet in Music City, the Nashville Post brand only stands to grow in its level of engagement and relevance to the Middle Tennessee marketplace with its own bimonthly print companion.

“While the statewide print publication may be departing, it should not be taken as a sign that its mission is not still needed, if not indeed vital, to the economic health of our state as a whole.”
