The wayback machine

It has been a while since we cranked up the wayback machine. Here's what was happening a year or two ago in Canadian Magazines.

This time a year ago...

• Maclean's reader says sex numbers don't add up
• Front Page newsstand, an Edmonton fixture, to close
• Will cultural mags be able to meet the CRA fundraising benchmarks?
• IABC claim about online ad sales questioned

This time two years ago...

• Quebecor withdraws bond issue it planned to use to buy Osprey
• Jane magazine RIP
• Gay magazine dispenses with "plain brown wrapper"
