Variety Nixes Daily Edition, Overhauls Weekly Mag

Plus: new editorial leadership and revamped website

Just a few months after being sold to Deadline.com owner Jay Penske, Variety is making some big changes. Beginning on March 18, the 108-year-old Hollywood trade publication will no longer publish is daily broadsheet, The Daily Variety. The Variety weekly magazine will stay in print, but with a new publishing schedule—Tuesdays rather than weekends—and a new look, debuting on March 26. Variety will also publish additional special editions.

Three new co-editors, Claudia Eller, Cynthia Littleton and Andrew Wallenstein, are replacing current editor-in-chief Tim Gray, who “remains in a leadership role, overseeing expansion of international coverage and other special projects such as the recent violence-and entertainment issue,” according to a statement.
