September 16, 2013 Media Industry Newsletter Vol. 66 No. 35 New York, N.Y. www.minonline.com Steve Smith's Eye on Innovation: "LHJ'S" USER-GEN STRATEGY NO LONGER TARGETS THE GENTLE READER. Radical is not a term one usually associates with Ladies' Home Journal. Neither is crowd-sourcing. When the monthly launched in 1883–during the early heyday of maga- zines and newspapers–it addressed audiences as "gentle reader". The magazine regis- tered an editorial posture that was both polite but effete and removed. Compare that with 2013. Eighteen months ago, LHJ made one of the most daring moves among magazines in genuinely inviting readers to help to be the "composers." This a new socially-generated LHJ had stories that were sourced from Facebook entries, while advice columns drew their content from the social feeds. LHJ now has 10,000 "beauty ambassadors" testing new products and composing reviews. Health content comes from cancer patients, spouses/children of Alzeimer's, etc., who write their own health narratives for the magazine, and are paid at professional scale. (continued on page 4) "MAXIM" HAS A NEW AND "EXCITED" OWNER IN CAL DARDEN SR. The September 12 announcement frees the "lad" magazine from investment bankers and moves it to the growth-oriented former United Parcel Service executive who started Darden Media Group. Good news for Maxim president Ben Madden and editor-in-chief Dan Bova because Darden plans to extend the brand across cable, radio and movie plat- forms. Perhaps that should mean added celebration at Maxim's Super Bowl party. JOIN US SEPTEMBER 23 FOR min's 10TH INTEGRATED MARKETING AWARDS "You've come a long way baby!" When min started the IMAs in 2004, integrated mar- keting was still somewhat of a novelty. Now it is a necessity, as shown by the record 150-plus finalists in 27 categories. Who would have envisioned competitions for best app integration, print/Web bundle, and social media initiatives 10 years ago? The enhanced competition means more creative campaigns on display at our Sep- tember 23 breakfast in New York's Grand Hyatt (East 42nd and Lexington). Plus, we will also celebrate 2013's Sweet 16 media buyers and brand marketers who champion magazines. Executives from Lexis, Moët Hennessy and David Yurman are among the 16 with the agency side having representation from GroupM, TargetCast, PHD on GSK, Zenithmedia and more. Our event partner is UBM DeusM. Assisting in presenting the 2013 IMAs are Brides vp/publisher Michelle Myers, and longtime agency executive and print buyer Steve Greenberger, who this year started North Star Data Advisors and the Business Projects Exchange.

The insert has appeared in Self since 1992, with the change from "breast cancer" to "wom- en's cancer" occurring a few years ago. The change in wording allows greater emphasis on ovarian cancer and the importance of regular screenings. Self editor-in-chief Lucy Danziger has told min that the handbook now also focuses on diet, exercise and lifestyle top- ics.

  • Photographic Manipulation and It's Impact On
    Photographic Manipulation and It’s Impact on Women’s Self-Image Eric Lindroth Photography One Period 2 September 2016 I see the magazines working that Photoshop We know that sh*# ain't real Come on now, make it stop If you got beauty beauty just raise 'em up 'Cause every inch of you is perfect From the bottom to the top - Meghan Trainor (from “All About That Bass”) In this song, Trainor is calling foul on the photographic manipulation that goes on in the magazines we see every day. She also asks for it to stop and for people to embrace the beauty they possess without the help of digital enhancement. If only it were that easy. These digital enhancements will be explored along with the effects these images can have on female self-image and what might be done to change the habits of these magazines when it comes to how they portray women. In this critique of photographic manipulations it is important to draw lines in what it means to enhance an image to correct for technical concerns verses changing a person’s body. In 2014, there was public outcry because of this image of Prince George above being manipulated in post-production by Us Weekly. Many people asked, “What? They are Photoshopping babies?” and claimed this was going too far. However, in this image, the only major manipulation is that a color correction has been done. The white balance of the image is slightly bluish and so the retouch artist simply adjusted the image to appear warmer in tone.

  • Steve Smith's Eye on Innovation on "The Atlantic's
    November 25, 2013 Media Industry Newsletter Vol. 66 No. 45 New York, N.Y. www.minonline.com Steve Smith's Eye on Innovation on "The Atlantic's" TheWire: WHEN DID THE NEWS GET SO "SOCIAL," ANYWAY? The relaunched and rebranded Atlantic Wire (now just TheWire) has embraced the trend of "social news," but this certainly was not always the case. When it launched in 2009, the aggregation arm of The Atlantic hardly could be more buttoned-down despite its interactive airs. The original iteration collected opinion pieces mainly around trending topics and was best known for its Atlantic 50 collection of columnists that it ranked and ex- cerpted. Talk about old school: news as massive op-eds from influencers like Michael Kinsley, David Brooks and Paul Krugman, with Arianna Huffington and Rachel Maddow breaking the boys' club. Four years later, TheWire.com has been repositioned after two years under former Gawker editor Gabriel Snyder. He and his 15-person staff are social-savvy and monitor the stories that are trending in order to both summarize and contextualize them for an audience that doesn't want to miss a thing. (continued on page 4) TWITTER AND PINTEREST OFFER PUBLISHERS NEW TOOLS. If you hadn't noticed, content–especially branded content with marquee value–is regain- ing some of its luster now that Facebook, Twitter, Pinterest, Instagram and Vine are now openly competing with one another to prove their value to marketers and media partners.

  • UK Office April 2020 TDC Report Prepared By
    UK Office April 2020 TDC Report Prepared by: Venessa Alexander UK Director Tour Operators 360 Private Travel - We spoke to Zia Bapuji, Supplier Partnerships Director at 360 Private Travel. The business operates as an invite-only, high-end luxury travel concierge service. Zia advised that eight members of the head office team have been furloughed for the foreseeable future; the business’s luxury travel consultants are all self-employed individuals that are continuing to work to support their customers, however, it is an extremely difficult period; bookings with values exceeding £100k are being lost. One significant difference for this operator is the customer is more willing (perhaps able?) to leave any monies paid to 360 with the operator and defer it to another trip later in 2020 or 2021. Zia noted that many suppliers (hotels, airlines) are no longer offering refunds and will only provide credit notes, which means the business/its consultants will be at a loss in situations where the customer wishes to cancel for a full refund. Ocean Holidays - We spoke to Lisa Airey, Commercial Manager. Lisa advised the business is currently working week-to-week dealing with upcoming bookings making amendments or cancellations. The majority are amending trips to the end of 2020 or 2021 but there are some cancellations, and this is of concern to the business because of the hit to cash flow. They have contacted all customers due to travel up to the middle of June and expect to have spoken to those travelling up to 30 June within the next couple of days.

Biography Library of Congress Control Number: 2004112444 INTRODUCTION This book tells a classic American success story. It is the story of a boy who grew up in a poor immigrant family in a poor neighborhood, and who, by means of brains, hard work, and old-fashioned values, rose to prominence in a mega-cor- poration and accumulated a sizable fortune—though not fame—along the way. If ever there was one, Thomas Elmezzi is an American boy who made good. But this is more than a success story—or, better said, it is a story show- ing that there is more than one way to succeed. Tom Elmezzi, who recently turned 89, has not chosen to turn his success into the material trappings that usually accompany the achievement of wealth. He and his wife, Jeanne, have lived for 50 years in the same five-room rented apartment in Great Neck, New York. He has never owned a home, let alone vacation property, though he could comfortably afford both. He doesn’t possess art treasures or a wine cellar. He was once part owner of a boat, but no more.
