Signs a magazine is in trouble

"The top 13 warning signs that a magazine is in trouble", published by blogger Michelle Rafter (Word Count -- freelancing in the digital age) are pretty close to the bone. I'll bet the list, which is richocheting around the blogosphere, makes a lot of freelancers pay attention to little signs they might otherwise have overlooked. Or, for that matter, some staffers might look out for these signs, too.

I would add #14: The magazine has had two publishers in 7 months.
