Ten Years

Editor’s Note:

Here is the ten year round-up for The eXile. Just another gem in the archives of one of my most admired publications.

Excerpt:
Worst Business decisions:
2.OFFENSIVE COVERS. From the start, we started losing distribution points due to our offensive covers and photos, yet gained other points due to reader demand. Then after September 11, 2001, we published a cover showing a boss banging his secretary in the WTC just as a jet is about to crash into their office window, and the secretary cries, “It’s so !” We lost about 20 distribution points and thousands of dollars in advertising. Then in 2004, we published a cover showing Putin as a Hitlerjugen midget to go with our “101 Reasons Why Putin Is A Fascist” article, and lost another 20 distribution points. (page 3)
