Stream Publishing has today announced that Attitude and Winq magazines are to merge to create a gay media 'superbrand', publishing in six countries and five languages across multiple print, digital and social platforms. A bigger-than-ever Attitude magazine, with higher production values and an increased page-count, will appear for the first time on 26 April with an expanded international brief and an exciting new look and feel. From its new, purpose-built UK base mid-way between London and Brighton, attitude will publish in English for sale in 32 countries worldwide, as well as under licence and in native languages in Belgium, the Netherlands, Thailand and (shortly) in both the Philippines and Vietnam.

The new-look attitude will be the first to be published under the tutelage of new editor-in-chief Cliff Joannou. Cliff, who has been editor of the print title for the past two years, having first joined as deputy editor nearly five years ago, will oversee all print and digital output at the head of a newly-combined editorial team.
