I like HX though!

And again.,..how is this important to me during one of the biggest political years again? Oh yeah…because you hate HX.

And while I'm at it, what makes this different from how they've done things in the past.

Nothing new.

Anyone notice that HX dropped its lawsuit against one of the IN workers that was fired, Bill Bergren? Guess they just didn't want to pay attorneys fees for something that incredibly stupid.

Are there other bar rags in the US or just HX?

Is there any paper HX has purchased that they have not run into the ground? Now the NYC Blade is only twice a month!!!

internet has taken over anything on paper both good & bad
guess we save a tree ! worry about air waves later

bars ,& clubs , all have sufferd because of internet hook ups ads are pulled & now do online not enough $ to go around
so advrtising is down hence the $ problems

my gay greeting company failed for simular reasons no one sends cards because of the internet
i should have done my homework i realize

Times they are a changing right before our very eyes

It is no surprise to anyone who follows media that print - in any form - is a business facing challenges like never before. Layoffs are abundant everywhere within the industry - not just at the gay rags. Time Inc. is about to lay off another huge number of staffers and OUT and Advocate just sold for a song. Ad pages are down everywhere, in newspapers and magazines.

Kind of wonder what the folks at here! Networks were thinkin' when they bought into such a clearly defined dying business (Out & Advocate). Bad enough the network can't get any traction!

Anyone also hear that Next is going to buy HX, and put the pub to rest?

Yeah but editorial has been better than ever under Brandon Voss.

Gee, what a surprise. NOT!

The end has been coming for a long time now. I feel sorry for the employees who lost their jobs.

HX's mismanagement and colossal arrogance have sunk what was once a quality GLBT publication.

Oh well, there's always Bay Windows….and EDGE.

EDGE SUCKS!

EDGE sucks? Get real - EDGE is the only place that I can go to get information on both San Francisco and NYC with the click of a button. Being bi-coastal, that just doesn't exist anywhere else…

Is Matthew Bank on suicide watch?

If he isn't, he will be.

Pook and Edge SUCK!

HX was a for runner it started with a good dream & blossomed into a great big $ making empire . they worked hard to get where they did . i was a contrbutor in the early days it grew & grew then others copied like any other successful company there is only so much need & it became a competition . i cant imagine how all the advertisors can spread there $ around & be in all places at once .

THe answer to Hells Kitchen is this: for QUeerty, HX and Genre are hte only gay magazines in the world and the only reason they get the publicity they do is because Andrew used to work for them and hates them with a passion. Whic makes him kinda lame IMHO.

As for firing Bill Berggren, he finally admitted that n'touch (his piece of shit paper) has folded so no chance that is coming back. He's working for bay windows now and probbaly giving out a shitload of free ads to try and sink NE Blade.

As was mentioend before, the print industry is dying a slow death and there's not enough money to go around for everyone especially in this economy.

Actually…I admit it…I suck well…EDGE could never suck as well as I do!
