NEW YORK, Sept. 24, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- Meredith
Corporation (NYSE: MDP) today announced that Meredith Premium
Publishing, the company's special interest magazine operation, has
joined forces with TIME on a special issue dedicated to the
extraordinary life and legacy of U.S. Supreme Court Justice
Ruth Bader Ginsburg. This
commemorative edition features an exclusive introduction by
President Bill Clinton, as well as
high praise of Ginsburg from both sides of the political aisle, a
selection of the Justice's most historic cases and reflections on
RBG's surprising turn late in life as a pop-culture icon. On sale
now for $14.99, this bookazine is
available at Magazine.Store, on Amazon and at retailers
nationwide.
"Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg was
among the fiercest champions of gender equality and women's rights
of our time. We applaud her unstoppable, unapologetic work—a
powerful legacy that will live on for generations," said
Doug Olson, President of Meredith
Magazines. "As a company that serves nearly 95% of all U.S. women,
we salute her and honor the exceptional powerhouse and changemaker
she was."
In a remarkable career that spanned six decades, Justice Ginsburg helped shape law and culture in
the U.S. through her passion for justice, advocacy for gender
equality and unflinching dedication to democracy. Even before her
1993 nomination by President Bill
Clinton to become the second woman seated on the Supreme
Court, Ginsburg's career was impressive: She was the first woman to
receive tenure on the Columbia
University Law School faculty, co-founded the ACLU's Women's
Rights Project and argued several landmark anti-sex-discrimination
cases before the Supreme Court. On the bench, Ginsburg's opinions
made history up until her death at 87 years old on September 18, 2020, though it was her
dissents—sharp, precise and passionate, especially those that were
delivered from the bench—that garnered the most attention.
The issue is part of several special edition projects involved
in Meredith Premium Publishing's partnership with TIME. Meredith
Premium Publishing (MPP) produces more than 300 special interest
issues per year, most priced between $10 and $15, with
nearly 1.3 million pockets nationwide and over 42% of the
premium bookazine category. Recent launches from MPP
include Sweet July with Ayesha
Curry, Reveal with Drew and Jonathan
Scott and the reimaginations of Rachael Ray In Season, Traditional Home, Coastal
Living and Cooking Light.
