The Improper Bostonian Ends Publication After 28 Years

BOSTON (CBS) – The Improper Bostonian magazine announced Thursday it is immediately ending publication after nearly 28 years in business.

"While this news might be surprising, the company has had a great run and we're hopefully leaving this incredible city better and brighter since our inception in 1991," publisher Wendy Semonian Eppich said in a statement.

The glossy lifestyle magazine had stories about fashion, arts, food, sports and more in the city of Boston. The Improper Bostonian's website said it reached nearly half a million readers.

Eppich did not give a reason for the magazine's closure.
