Outlook is published by Hathway Investments and printed at Tata Infomedia in Mumbai.The editor is former Debonair chief Mr Vinod Mehta.
Outlook is an unique magazine.Though not the first weekly newsmag, it changed the way news is presented.Before it came, magazines were either TOMES or frivolous.With the advent of the Big O, the focus shifted to crisp, attractive news presentation.A very famous fortnightly with loads of brand equity was forced to become weekly.There was a general trend of presenting news as it happens as opposed to becoming ivory-tower judgemental.I believe this is a healthy trend.
The magazine has regular columns by Prem Shankar Jha, Rajinder Puri and former rival Madhu Trehan.The magazine has been in the thick of reporting the match-fixing scandal.It was also involved in reporting the Tehelka scam.Tarun Tejpal who is now with Tehelka has worked for this magazine.
I firmly believe that with all its attributes this is THE magazine of the future!
