[QUOTE="Anonymous, post: 312433"] All cultures have something to hide. Like the Victorians did brothels. So they agree to keep up the appearances they want by just looking the other way. What nobody mentions (surprisingly), even given the general realisation that pipe magazines are there to sell advertising to pipe businesses, with content secondary, is that in any area (Guns & Ammo, Golf Digest, whatever), feature space is conditional on advertising expenditure. One hand washes the other. It's a pattern at least as old as Time Magazine -- a start-up during the previous Great Depression that (strangely, to all appearances) flourished while magazines in general were going out of business : by selling editorial policy on specific topics those in the business of creating "public opinion" to the highest bidders on them. With cover space going highest of all. Followed by back cover, inside front, inside back . . . Probably enough said on [i]that[/i]. :face: [/QUOTE]
