The Telegraph in Nashua, N.H. and the New Hampshire Business Review are launching a website next week that will focus on business and politics in the state.

The Lobby will be the first subscription-based site for publications, and will cost $199 a year, with discounts available for multiple subscribers, the newspaper said in an article by staff writer Ashley Smith.

“We think it's going to be a must-read, especially for political junkies, business owners and executives, legislators, lobbyists, public-relations firms and the like,” the newspaper said.

The site, www.thelobbynh.com, will be free for the first two weeks. It launches Monday, Oct. 18.

"The concept behind The Lobby was to bring additional focus and edge to state political and business coverage - two issues that have significant and unique audiences," Telegraph Publisher and President Terry Williams said. "New Hampshire, because of its size and access, offers closer-than-usual relationships between politics and commerce. Legislative and business decisions don't necessarily track along partisan lines. Understanding these relationships, understanding how decisions get made requires experience, connections and knowing where to look and to whom to talk."

The Lobby “will be edgier than our current publications, and more predictive in nature,” the paper said.  “Rather than just writing about a controversial bill making its way through the Statehouse, we'll predict how it will pan out or tell you whom to call in order to get it killed.”
