Gensaiken Posted November 23, 2008 Report Share Posted November 23, 2008 Hard to believe the economy did this but it looks like Sport Compact Car magazine is no more. http://njection.com/blogs/autoblog/archive/2008/11/21/source-interlink-kills-lt-i-gt-sport-compact-car-lt-i-gt-laying-off-115-employees.aspx Supposedly according to the article they got rid of turbo earlier this year, which suprised me. Thats the end of a good source for datsun related article in print as well as one of my favorite car related magazines. :( Quote Link to comment

ppeters914 Posted November 24, 2008 Report Share Posted November 24, 2008 Over the years I've let all my subscriptions lapse....until I got into Datsuns. Now I get JNC, DQ (easier to keep up when they only come quarterly :D ) and thinking of Nissan Sport. Hell, with these forums, who has time to read anymore??? :eek: Quote Link to comment

Gensaiken Posted November 24, 2008 Author Report Share Posted November 24, 2008 well icouldnt find anything on it, but i did see that TEEN magazine was canceled! WTF is going on? why they all disappearing?!? its possible that advertising money has taken a big hit and thats what most magazines survive on. Quote Link to comment
Llittle_Llama Posted November 24, 2008 Report Share Posted November 24, 2008 but those teen magazines are ALL adds, its 99.9% profit! they only have to pay for the front cover!!! Quote Link to comment
