The debut issue of the WEHO PRIDE GUIDE 2024 has sold out. The 36 page glossy magazine is scheduled to hit WeHo streets in time for the kickoff of the WeHo Arts Festival on May 22nd.
Produced by Boystown Media Inc. and distributed throughout Southern California by Pride in Media Inc, the WEHO PRIDE GUIDE aims to lift the narrative for the City of West Hollywood.
WELCOME TO WEST HOLLYWOOD is the message. WE’LL KEEP YOU SAFE. The photo, message and narrative won the approval of the Sheriff Information Bureau who rubber-stamped the public service and goodwill message.
Brian Hibbard spearheaded the project. Brandon Garcia is working on exclusive copy. All wrapped up in an epic team effort by the businesses and organizations who supported the guide.
In addition to the 10,000 magazines the WEHO PRIDE GUIDE will be delivered to via Spectrum banner ads to over 250,000 desktop and mobile phones and all social media platforms.
What the hell does “lift the city narrative” mean?
“ WELCOME TO WEST HOLLYWOOD is the message. WE’LL KEEP YOU SAFE. The photo, message and narrative won the approval of the Sheriff Information Bureau who rubber-stamped the public service and goodwill message”
I’m so confused. You use this website to craft a narrative of “it’s unsafe to come to West Hollywood”, bad to do business in west hollywood etc
And then want credit for publishing a magazine that says “We’ll keep you safe”
What???
We report crime stats. Nothing is fictional. Ive worked to better this city for years and years and dont know a single thing you have done except critique everybody else. My store is a welcome matt for tourists, and residents 365 days a year for the past 15 years. And it is no secret that we have supported Public Safety and the Sheriff even when the council cut the Sheriff, a crime spree ensued, the news was all over, people started to stay away from weho, and then the restored the sheriff to right their wrong…we hope to get that… Read more »
Let me ask you this:
Have you EVER published any critique of the LASD or their leadership?
Im not in charge of the news, or the crime. But we have published accusations from Anne Jump Vicente toward the sheriff, photos of cops beating on a patron in front of my shop and more. So your preface, is wrong. Own that. Your preconceived notion of bias is what you birng to the table. Brandon reports what happens. And I read it just like you. Theres no plan or plot.
Larry, you and Brandon are doing a damned fine job of fairness in all that you do. I’d ignore the arguments of divert, deny, deflect that so often find a comfortable home in anonymity.
“we’ll keep you safe” (?)
