Afar magazine is on newsstands now after a spectacular August launch party in New York City. Well, we weren’t there, but Advertising Age described the affair as “…like a magical wonderland.” Other media outlets expressed amazement that, in this environment, an actual ink-on-paper magazine would launch at all. But the press that we think will interest you the most concerns the editorial content — and quality — of the product itself. To take just one example, The Washington Post characterized Afar as “an adventure of a read,” and went on to say, “Unlike other glossies that rank hotels by thread counts and compare brown sugar scrubs at exotic spas, Afar goes deep inside a destination, rummaging around as an insider, not a face staring out a tour bus window.”
