The Advocate, founded in 1967 started out as a twelve page newsletter and was the first major magazine to address issues of interest to gay men and lesbians, and it has in ensuing years published some of the best journalism about antigay violence, policy issues affecting the LGBT community, and AIDS - topics often not well covered by the mainstream press. Out is the top gay style magazine. Both are owned by Here Media, which also owns Here Networks and several LGBT web sites.
