Are you directing your suggestion at anyone who thinks woodworking magazines are fading?
I hope not....because if you are, you've mixed up the boss and the servant. Articles are published to please the readers (boss), if the boss isn't happy, the boss isn't going to write anything, including the cheque that keeps the publishing house's lights on.
That's how the modern world works. Bosses can b------ as much as they like and as often as they want. Be a boss!
