abstract
  • Southern Voice (commonly known as SoVo) was a lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender newspaper in Atlanta, Georgia and the Southeast United States. Launched as an independent publication in 1988, it was later part of Window Media which published several gay-oriented newspapers in the United States. It focused mainly on global and regional political issues concerning LGBT persons. Southern Voice was a member of the National Gay Newspaper Guild. Southern Voice claimed over 100,000 readers, the most widely read LGBT paper in the region. On November 16, 2009, Southern Voice and several related publications, including the Washington Blade, were shut down as Window Media closed up shop. The US Bankruptcy Court in Atlanta auctioned the assets of Southern Voice in February 2010. The rights to the names, trademarks, and archives of Southern Voice and David magazine were sold to Matt Neumann, publisher of Gaydar magazine for $9,000. Southern Voice was revived on April 16, 2010, though with an erratic printing schedule and complaints about quality control. David magazine reappeared on March 10. The paper ceased publishing after the December 2, 2010, issue. David Atlanta and Southern were sold in August 2011. According to DRT Media Group, Southern Voice is not being considered for re-launch in the foreseeable future.
