Outlook Media was a Columbus, Ohio-based lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender (LGBT) lifestyle and advocacy company for the Ohio queer and allied community from 1995 until late 2017.

Outlook Columbus was a monthly lifestyle and advocacy magazine geared toward Ohio's LGBT and urban progressive communities.

Editorial coverage includes politics, small businesses, arts & entertainment, health & wellness, faith, fashion, sports, interviews, horoscopes, events and community news.

With over 25,000 print copies distributed monthly, the magazine can be found for free in over 3,000 locations throughout Ohio, including local libraries, restaurants, and night clubs or by paid, home-delivery subscription.

Love Big relieves the added stress of coming out to potentially non-supportive vendors by putting equality-minded businesses all in one place.

Over 50,000 copies will be distributed statewide annually to wedding vendors, shops, universities, restaurants, coffee houses, libraries, community centers and subscribers.

High Street Neighborhoods is a bi-annual, community based saver-magazine whose audience is the general public that resides within the Columbus urban core.

[5] Outlook Media and The Ohio Historical Society created this initiative to include memorabilia and memories for gays across the state.

Hosted by Chris Hayes and Chad Frye, the show has a leftward lean, targeting the LGBTQ community but was enjoyed by a larger progressive audience.

For example, when Outlook published a piece about anti-gay harassment by members of the Ohio State University wrestling team, the OSU Athletic Department created mandatory sexual orientation cultural competence training for all its employees.

Chris Hayes and Michael Daniels bought the company and moved Outlook's offices to The Short North.

After the Sports Illustrated article, the story went viral across the country including reports by the San Francisco Chronicle [17] and The Advocate's '150 Reasons to Have Pride' among others.

[18] In July 2010 Chad Frye, a consultant and business executive, and Bob Vitale of the Columbus Dispatch, joined Christopher Hayes as Co-owners and Co-publishers.

The additional partners created the capacity to re-launch the publication across the entire state of Ohio, with major distribution hubs in Cincinnati, Cleveland, Columbus, Toledo, Dayton, Youngstown, Canton, and Akron.

In June 2016, Co-publishers Chad Frye and Robert Vitale exited the company, leaving Christopher Hayes as sole owner and publisher.
