Send Clowns,
I really have no interest in debating the particulars of scamerons post with you. If he wishes I’m sure he’ll take it up with you in person.
My simple point is that I believe, as someone who’s in daily contact with many publishers, editors and media sales people, that many magazines’ editorial policy is strongly influenced by companies who advertise with them.
If you believe otherwise, then so be it.
But let’s please not get into a pointless argument on a public forum. The signal to noise ratio in these forums is getting bad enough with ronchonner/skyman/newname100/etc.
