The Washington Post announced Friday that its publication Capital Business “will move into the main newspaper throughout the week and no longer be a separate subscription publication.” CapBiz writers will have two pages in Sunday and Monday print editions, “with regular placement on the Sunday section front and on page one,” the Post‘s announcement says.
The Post launched Capital Business in 2010 as a $49 add-on for newspaper subscribers. Non-subscribers could get it for $69 before Friday’s announcement.
According to the most recent publisher’s statement filed with the Alliance for Audited Media, Capital Business‘ total average circulation was 22,305 copies for the six months ending in September, with average paid circulation of 8,003.
The change is planned for February 1.
