MEDIA24 Weekly Magazines is happy to announce the cover price of its weekly magazine NewsNow will drop to R10 on Friday 9 March 2012 during a special welcome promotion to celebrate its seventh month in South African stores.

According to NewsNow editor, Waldimar Pelser, the new cover price “aims to make NewsNow accessible to a larger audience for a limited period,” making it less expensive to get in the know.

“Our weekly selection of the best of SA and world media is now even better value. We offer opinion and stories from around the world and regularly feature work by some of the world’s best journalists. At R10 we become affordable to many more readers,” Pelser said.

So what does this mean for existing subscribers? Those who have already subscribed will receive extended subscriptions at no cost so they too can benefit from the special offer.  New subscribers can have the magazine delivered to their home or office for as little as R8 a week.
