About New York Media: New York Media, parent to New York magazine, nymag.com, MenuPages,com, grubstreet.com, vulture.com and TheCut.com, is far along on its journey from perceived regional magazine to multi-platform national brand, reaching nearly 10 million visitors across the country (and around the world) with about two thirds coming from outside the New York market, in addition to a print audience of 1.8 million.

Recently cited by the NY Times as “fast becoming a digital enterprise with a magazine attached”, New York stands out among magazine peers, with an ever-expanding audience that follows us in print, online, on our mobile apps, through email newsletters and social media, and at our popular signature events.

New York magazine and nymag.com won significant recognition from magazine-industry peers in 2009-2010, including 2010 National Magazine Award wins for General Excellence both in print and online, for a total of 6 2010 ASMEs, in addition to recognition for nymag.com’s Partnership with HSBC’s “Values Soapbox” Campaign and cover awards for “Bernie Madoff, Monster”, from both ASME and Time.

In 2010, New York Media launched its first iPhone app (for MenuPages.com) which has been downloaded over 175,000 times and received glowing critical reviews. In May, the company launched an app for Google’s Android operating system featuring the site’s five well-read daily blogs, with an iPad version of the magazine due in the coming months.
