Some fresh faces cited for mag awards Among the first-time nominees is the Economist Mar 15, 2007 In the annual naming of finalists for the National Magazine Awards, there's the usual contenders, among them the New Yorker and The Atlantic, and a smattering of obscure titles, and they're on this year's list as well. But also on the list of nominees are first-time nominees, and they include magazines like the Economist, the respected British newsweekly, and The Columbia Journalism Review, which one might think would have been nominated many times before. That list of first-time nominees also includes Best Life, Cookie, Metropolis, More, New Letters, Saltwater Sportsman, Seed and Wondertime. Interestingly, two of those magazines, Cookie and Wondertime, are parenting titles, at a time when that category is feeling the pinch of the internet. The Economist is up for general excellence among magazines with circulations of 500,000 to 1,000,000, competing with Condé Nast Traveler, Esquire, Gourmet, GQ and Wired. Other multiple nominees include: The Atlantic Monthly (3); The Believer (2); BusinessWeek.com (2); City (2); Condé Nast Traveler (2); Field & Stream (4); Foreign Policy (2); Glamour (2); Gourmet (3); GQ (4); Martha Stewart Living (2); Mother Jones (2); National Geographic (5); Newsweek (3); O, The Oprah Magazine (2); The Paris Review (2); Rolling Stone (2); Seed (2); Slate (2); Time (2); Vanity Fair (4); The Virginia Quarterly Review (2); W (2); and Wired (2).
