I've had a subscription for Bitch Magazine for six years.
I love the articles that dissect ads, TV shows, and other cultural issues. And on top of that, I always get good recommendations for books, and great recommendations for music from the reviews section.
But like many other magazines lately (including the ones I used to work for), Bitch may be closing up shop.
As an independent, feminist magazine, they are extremely picky about what ads they'll run. And they haven't folded to the pressure to have an "editorial" fashion section like Bust disappointingly did a couple of years back.
I'm going to send $25 to Bitch and hope that others do the same. I don't want it to go the same way as Clamor, a magazine I had only just begun to read when it folded.
What independent magazines do you like? Which did you read that are no longer around?

I read someone suggest that Bitch should move online. Seems like a good idea to me, don't you think? Print is fun, but it's a thing of the past.
