Am I the only one?

I just called them yesterday about my issue. I did change my address middle of last month so I thought that was the reason for the delay. Now I am thinking maybe it wasnt. This isnt the first time I have had to call them though. Last time Luby publishing told me if its no there by the 15th, you should call them.
So your not alone.

I had a brief affilliation with the print media at one time, and usually, you have to have all of the materials sent to the printer two months ahead of time from when the magazine comes out.
That said, I just finished an exhaustive project on print media, which drew me to this thread. Newspapers, in particular, are struggling big time. Yet, their Internet sites, i.e., washingtonpost-dot-come, as an example, are successful.
Magazines may fall into a similar category as newspapers in that they are print media.
I can tell you this, our Sunday newspaper has so few Sunday ads now. When I was a kid, I can remember getting the funny papers and checking out all the sales and coupons. There ain't much sales and coupons in the Sunday paper anymore.
Without advertisers, print media entities are riding on the Titanic. It's only a matter of time. :frown:

That sounds about right. I was managing editor for a journal that was published quarterly, and at the same time an issue was going to press, I basically had to have everything ready to generate first proofs for the next issue. I had to work on a 3 month advance schedule.
My issues always came out at the end of the printed month and I was fine with that and most of the readership was as well. As long as they got their 4 issues per year in a reasonably timely fashion, they were satisfied. Cut them some slack.
