Out Traveler Folds
 

The PlanetOut/Regent magazine, the travel offshoot of Out, just shuttered according to a source, adding to the growing pile of publishing refuse. Foreshadowing the magazine's closing, Out Traveler's editor Ed Salvato just told one newspaper, "Like the frozen credit markets now, the travel market froze after 9/11. The only group that proved itself resilient was the gay and lesbian group, and marketing recognized this and started to target the market. 2001 was a watershed year." 2008? Not so much. More details? You know what to do.

That's a real shame - Traveler was a cool little mag. It was in an unusual niche, though, not being paid for, and bundled into Out and The Advocate a few times a year.
