UPDATE: In a statement released July 6, Out & About Newspaper said the publication will return to all three of Harris Teeter's Nashville-area stores. The statement said, "Jennifer Panetta, director of communication for Harris Teeter, notified O&AN Publisher Jerry Jones of the decision on Friday, July 6. Jones said she had requested copies of the publication earlier in the week. A review was finished on July 5, and the company made the decision to allow the publication back in their stores."

After being removed from Kroger and Harris Teeter stores, Out & About Newspaper will return to eight of 34 Nashville-area Kroger stores. The Kroger on Charlotte Avenue, near Charlotte Park, will not be among the eight to distribute the free newspaper, which serves the local gay community.
Newspaper officials said in a statement: "Out & About Newspaper has identified eight Kroger stores that are in areas of town that the newspaper has high readership. O&AN publisher Jerry Jones said that while the eight stores are significantly less than the original 34, the newspaper never wanted to be in 34 stores."
