‘Billboard’ Launches Spanish-Language Magazine

Billboard and 13th Floor Television have collaborated to launch Billboard Latino magazine, a Spanish-language publication meant to complement the efforts of the Billboard Latino TV show which airs weekly throughout the U.S. on the Azteca America network.

Billboard Latino magazine includes interviews with Latin music stars, album reviews, music industry news, contests, columns, and the Billboard Latin music charts. Leila Cobo, Billboard’s Latin music bureau chief, is the editor-in-chief of Billboard Latino and also writes a column for the magazine.

Billboard Latino, available since the beginning of April, is distributed monthly as an insert in the Chicago Tribune’s daily Spanish-language newspaper Hoy that circulates in New York, Chicago and Los Angeles, and in El Sentinel in South Florida, with a total reach of 400,000 homes. The launch of the publication follows the launch of the Billboard Latino website.
