RIP Parade Magazine (in print)

Final edition in your Sunday newspaper between the comics and the coupons: November 13.

 

How am I supposed to advertise my collectible plates?

 

I honestly didn't know it had hung on that long. Then again, I haven't picked up this locale's Sunday edition in about five years.

 

Where am I going to get Ask Marilyn?

 

I always wondered how Parade could go so many years without printing one decent article.

 

So no more Parade All-Americans? They are going to cost some kid a scholarship!

 

How many words was the feature article? 500 words? You barely got the celebrity's name before the article was over.

 

You'd think Marilyn could have figured a way to keep it going. Fraud!

 

She's the smartest person ever. Maybe she could have figured out Parade Magazine.

 

They still doing the high school All American teams?

 

Who is clicking on an online version of Parade? It's a nice enough three-minute distraction while thumbing through the Sunday paper, but there is nothing there I would ever seek out.

 

Did a little digging. Apparently Parade was bought earlier this year by The Arena Group, formerly Maven. Although I can't imagine the Parade IP is even worth stripping for parts.
