More Publications That Died While You Were Sleeping
R.I.P.
 


Frank magazine, Canada's answer to Radar, has been publishing snarky news gossip since 1989. But no longer: The 'zine folded last week without too much fanfare here in the states, as we were all too busy trying to get one last free drink out of Maer Roshan before Radar closed up for good.

Meanwhile the Village Voice's West Coast sister, LA Weekly, has been handing out layoffs like kid-size Three Musketeers bars on Halloween. Which happened to be exactly when the pape laid off their managing editor Sharan Street, editor and columnist Marc Cooper, and copy chief David Caplan, as well as three newsroom positions. It's time to tell Travis that Old Yeller is out in the shed and needs to be put down for good.

So if you thought that somehow things magically turned around while you were out dressed like sexy Sarah Palin…they didn't.
