The work of Capital Business writers will be concentrated on two pages in both the Sunday and Monday newspapers, with regular placement on the Sunday section front and on page one, and local business coverage will be a regular presence in the paper and online every day.
The Capital Business team will continue to produce popular, specialized blogs like OnIT and On Small Business, and will continue to produce the hugely successful “Top Workplaces” list, with its corresponding magazine and event.
“We found there is an enormous appetite for the kind of journalism Capital Business produces, with 85 percent of our readers telling us they are interested in local business news and information,” said Steve Hills, president and general manager, The Washington Post, in a statement. “Incorporating Capital Business into the newspaper gives our readers more of the local business expertise they expect from The Post.”
Hills added, “Capital Business has grown its revenue in the years since its launch, and this move will allow us to further expand the advertising opportunities for this very popular content.”
Capital Business will make its Sunday debut in The Post on Feb. 1, 2015.
