Conde Nast's GQ & Glamour on Video Cross-Platform

Conde Nast will try to do for two of its iconic magazines what Hearst recently announced for Esquire -- but without the still valuable traditional TV distribution, where original series will be widely distributed on new areas of respective magazine Web sites, as well as IPTV, mobile, tablet and other video platforms. 
Procter & Gamble and Microsoft have come on as traditional sponsors.
The move is being headed by Dawn Ostroff, who came aboard a year and a half ago as president of Conde Nast Entertainment. Ostroff has held senior programming executive positions at CW, and before that, Lifetime.
