Frequently Asked Questions
What exactly IS The Loyalist?
As of this moment, The Loyalist is a high-end newsprint publication, free of advertising and with no sponsored content or paid contributor. Alternatively, we are seeking to create a space where everyday people that are true fans can creatively express their love for things that they are passionate about in their life. A trusted space to spread things of meaning.
Where and when will it be available?
As of March 2021, our first issue is now available. We distribute primarily through direct web orders. To inquire for wholesale orders, please contact us at submit@theloyalist.online.
Why print only?
As Seth Godin has pointed out, the attention crisis is real. So in a world where you can’t remember which podcast to listen to next, can’t keep up with all the blogs, articles, and social media posts, we’ve decided to cut through all of that with something attractive enough that you don’t mind letting it hang out on your coffee table, bedside table, or shelf until you’ve finished reading it. We will be pursuing print primarily as a newspaper, simply because, quite frankly, we missed reading the printed newspaper (and our we weren’t even sure our kids knew what one was).
Will it be available digitally?
At this time, we are not planning to publish editions of The Loyalist online. While there may be the availability of a digital edition, we believe in the power of print because it brings back many of the constraints we have lost in a land where the infinite real estate of the internet allows there to be billions of new pieces of content released daily. Because we will have limited space, that will shape our decision making on which pieces are most powerful and get featured.
What kind of content are you looking for?
The short answer? We’ll know it when we see it. Since we believe we are cultivating a place for a different kind of content, it is hard to offer you exact examples until our first edition is released, but please check our blog for ideas.
