The Ohio weekly has changed its
name to simply Alive and is now
"the music, art and culture paper of
Columbus," Publisher Sally
Crane writes in an Oct. 17 editorial.
Saying the paper was "stuck in a rut,"
Crane says Alive will quench those who
"were thirsting for more of what they
find relevant to their lives" -- and
that's more on the arts, music and culture
scenes "with tips and top picks
in
each category." Crane says it's hard for
her, a former investigative reporter, to
admit, but the paper was taking itself "a
little too seriously."
