I’ve confirmed on their message boards here. Fahrenheit, the year-old independent magazine is no more. It was founded by entrepreneur Adam Gnade, though it looks like he’s more about his spoken word and music thing now. It’s a pity, but San Diego does have The Reader and San Diego CityBeat still are in business. But how many free print weeklies can one city support? (No, really, how many?)
And kids, you have San Diego Blog now. We’re happy to take up the slack in covering San Diego, even if we don’t wear trucker caps or drink beer at The Whistle Stop — (well, except that one time).
Correction: Adam Gnade was the editor; the founder/driving force was Patrick Glynn, the publisher.
San Diego Blog regrets the error.
Fahrenheit was a good publication. It was far from great as it got really trendy and cliche, but it was a nice change from the Reader. It had some good articles that were interesting about San Diego. For instance the guy that walks all over the city selling bread from a cart. The music and art scene was more indie than The Reader and I liked that. Yeah, I like the Whistle Stop and M-Theory and The Casbah. I like San Diego Blog too. Maybe it can pick up where Fahrenheit left off. Well, with out the trucker hats and the “i’m trying really hard to look like i don’t care” attitude.
Fahrenheit was created by adam gnade and jessie duquette.
they pitched the idea to patrick glynn who was the money man. gnade and
duquette ran the thing and came up with the ideas. but alas..
