Daily Voice to launch two weekly newspapers

Daily Voice will launch two countywide newspapers starting March 13, one for Westchester and another for Fairfield, Daily Voice founder and chair Carll Tucker announced Tuesday.

The company said the idea is to reach a wider audience, including those who are younger and older and don’t  frequently visit the Daily Voice websites.

Daily Voice will continue publishing stories on its 41 Westchester and Fairfield websites. But only the top five percent of the 800 stories Daily Voice produces will be printed in the weekly newspapers, Tucker said.

“The weeklies will showcase Daily Voice in waiting rooms and lobbies and will provide municipalities and other jurisdictions an effective distribution medium for legal notices,” Tucker said in a written statement.

The annual newspaper subscription rate for Daily Voice will be $125 with a pre-publication discount subscription rate of $75 starting January. Advertisements won’t be sold into the newspapers initially, but current Daily Voice advertisers will be allowed to use the ad space.
