Today's Hoot!

Dept. of I Didn't Know There Were So Many Dentists:
Although circulation for newsweeklies remains flat or is dipping, I am still astonished that Time reports a circulation of 4.05 million copies. Are those real sales or do they give most of them away? I haven't read a copy outside a doctor's office in years.
Me too, and I'm always gobsmacked by the atrocious content when I pick one up in a waiting room. Time looks the way People used to, and People resembles some awful tabloid.
