-
This aim has been aided by the launch in 2011 of a Guardian US website, edited from New York City, followed two years later by a Sydney-based Guardian Australia site, which
greatly increased the Weekly’s coverage opportunities in these key territories. -
[16] It was announced that the circulation of the magazine would increase, and three different editions would be published: International, North American, and Australian.
-
In the same year, content from The Observer began to appear after the UK Sunday title was purchased by Guardian Media Group.
-
Breaking news stories were now launched on the Guardian’s fast-growing website, rather than held back to meet print deadlines.
-
Notable readers[edit] The paper’s readers include many world statesmen, including Nelson Mandela, who subscribed during his time in prison and described the paper as his “window
on the wider world”. -
[14] The Guardian Weekly’s evolution continued under Abby Deveney,[15] a newspaper, newswire and web editor with more than three decades of international experience living
and working in North America, Asia and Europe. -
The standard publication runs to 64 pages since its change of format (from a newspaper) on 12 October 2018.
-
The Weekly had the stated aim of “presenting what is best and most interesting in the Manchester Guardian, what is most distinctive and independent of time, in a compact weekly
form”. -
[1] Readers say typical reasons for subscribing include: a family habit of taking the Manchester Guardian; a spell working abroad in development or teaching; and retirement
or emigration (often to Australia, New Zealand or North America). -
The Manchester Guardian viewed itself as a leading liberal voice and wanted to extend its reach, particularly in the United States, in the changing political climate after
the First World War. -
In 2007 a digital edition[10] of the Guardian Weekly was created, an editor’s blog[11] was added and a presence on social media sites Facebook[12] and Twitter[13] came soon
after. -
[17] Format The title is printed at sites in the UK, Australia and the United States in a full-colour news magazine format.
-
It is one of the world’s oldest international news publications and has readers in more than 170 countries.
-
Evolution and editorship 1969-2007[edit] For a large part of its early life the newspaper was a half-broadsheet format.
-
Before long the Manchester Guardian could boast “there is scarcely a corner of the civilised world to which it is not being posted regularly”, although it is worth noting
that the newspaper was banned in Germany by Hitler[3] for a time.
