    After working at lady mags for over 20+ years, I still cannot find the energy to gloat at the demise of the industry that intially bought me such joy. There are so many good, hard working editors that are jobless, or like me reinventing themselves in a dying industry that is innundated with young women, and men willing to work for nothing, that live at home. We "Oldies"..can't compete...

    Much as I dislike the ladymags, I work in print media. As goes their advertising, so goes all other print publications' advertising. It is a deeply disturbing state of affairs and not one I wish to gloat about.

    @ihateyourescalade: Yeah, as passionate as I am about magazines like Bitch, it can only support so many low or unpaid staff members and freelancers. Lady mags can't change if they cease to exist.

    The September InStyle was heavy as hell and chock full of ads and fashion spreads for thigh high boots. I don't want 3 pounds of ads and I certainly can't wear thigh high boots to work, thanks.

    About time-- if they got any fatter they'd be featured in OK and In Touch magazines.

    @CurtCole: I was going to say, you think they'd spin this into something positive. 'Thinnest issue ever! We've slimmed down! Now boys like us!'
