FoxTalk to Stop Publication
For many years, Whil Hentzen has been the editor of FoxTalk. Today, he posted the following on the Universal Thread:
I can't say I'm surprised by this. The number of pages in each issue has been decreasing while the price has been going up. Last year, Pinnacle Publishing was purchased by Ragan Communications and I just had a feeling they would stop publication.
As a FoxTalk subscriber, I have not seen anything from the publisher nor is there any mention on the web site. I'll probably see something once they've sortout my transition to another publication.
I resigned as editor of FoxTalk last September, but agreed to stay on as editor until they found someone to replace me. On February 2, I received a letter from Pinnacle, stating "Pinnacle has decided to stop publishing FoxTalk. The final issue will be the April 2004 issue."
