Quote, unquote: How did magazine editors get so old?

There’s a great deal to be said for experience. But there also used to be a lot to be said for inexperience, for freshness, for the youthful desire to throw everything up in the air and start again. It’s just that nobody appears to be saying it anymore.

-- David Hepworth, editorial director of Development Hell, British publishers of the Word and Mixmag, writing the cover story of InPublishing, about the aging process among magazine editors.
