It is an interesting day when the Vouge of food goes extinct. After being in circulation for 68 years the magazine called Gourmet has been shut down. It shows you that other forms of media really are talking over, even the most prominent food magazine ever.
It amazes me that all the new forms of media such as cooking shows, are over taking this magazine. My father is a great cook, and a huge fan of the magazine. I called him when I heard the news, and he said in a very loud voice " what has become of our world, when television can take over such a great and tasty magazine." My father not only loves food and cooking, but also refuses to even buy a television.
As in response to the bride magazines being closed, it is surprising that the need for gowns is even running short. This is not as much as a surprise to me, just because as the marriage age gets higher for women, they become more wise and realize that theydo not need to spend so much time and money on a dress.
I guess all to say is, if you are not being in money, watch your back, because it really does not matter how long you have been around; your only worth the money you bring in.

This is sad news for me. A couple of friends and I are working on starting a magazine, but stories like this keep coming out and casting doubt on our plan. I think we will just be publishing it online, instead of in print. Printing is too expensive anyway...
ReplyDeleteWow that's not really good. There are so many medias out there that are wanting and starting to take over magazines. I love reading things in magazines such as food recipes rather than watching it on TV.
ReplyDeleteIt is very sad that the media, television, and the internet is taking over our world. To know that the Gourmet magazine has been around for 68 years and is shutting its doors after that long. I wonder if the economy has anything to do with that.
ReplyDeleteI know a lot of magazines are going out of business and not being sold anymore, not only because of other media outlets but because of the economy. You can now buy a years subscription for half as much as it used to be. It's sad to see so many companys going under.
