New York Press has announced that it will no longer accept “explicit” advertising, which had been a mainstay of the publication for years. Washington papers, large and small, also count on such ads to bring in revenues in the millions of dollars range each year. Does this move mean a change is coming to the allegedly more staid world of District publishing?

One in-the-know media observer told us this afternoon that the City Paper has already seen pressure to “cut down on the raciness” with its recent sale to Creative Loafing. Stay tuned.
