Forbes editor in chief Steve Forbes was profiled by Stephen Foley of the Independent newspaper in London, who came away from the interview believing that Forbes magazine will thrive.
“Communities of readers and reporters will form around media brands, he predicts. Specialist publications will be able to charge a narrow audience for their work. Longer, investigative work will be funded largely by charitable foundations or think-tanks. Magazines in physical form will endure, more certainly than newspapers, because they offer an at-your-leisure read, he says. And the Forbes brand, of course, is strong.
“It is hard to think of another publication so tied together with the identity and philosophy of one family and, these days, one man. Steve Forbes initially set up his own magazine, Business Today, as a student at Princeton University, but he was preordained to run the family heirloom and has been Forbes editor-in-chief since his father’s death in 1990.”
