    This is only part of the magazine holocaust. Don't forget the good people who work unglamourously and thanklessly at the B2B's. They also serve and they also suffer.

    @TheBusinessGuy: But they bore more, for an audience who is paid by their corporate overlords to read the damn things.

    @raincoaster: You could say as much about Fortune or Forbes. And I would point out that Gawker, for instance, gets a fair amount of news from the likes of Variety, Mediaweek, and Ad Age, so they aren't always as boring as you think they are. Surely you aren't saying that if B2B people are unemployed it's just fine because their audience isn't cool enough. Not everyone can or wants to write about fashion, media, or gossip, and not everyone wants to or needs to write about it. Let's have some respect for those who toil honestly in related fields, and those who through no fault of their own have no paycheck now.

    @raincoaster: OH! I so wish it'd spring back from the dead for the (fourth? fifth? I lost count) time. That was one fine and unique book. Hilarious from cover to cover to boot. Maer Roshan = awesome. I'd work for him for free.

    As a former Gourmet employee (pre Conde) and longtime subscriber, this is sad. Not surprising as Ruth Reichl, while a capable restaurant critic, never really was able to capture a consistent look or theme to the publication. In fact, of late, Gourmet started to revert back to some of what made it a great magazine under the direction of the MacAusland family.

    From the penthouse at the Plaza to the Conde Nast trash can in Times Square...Gourmet it was quite a ride! Adieu!
