It's great free publicity and acknowledment for such a "kaput."
What elements will survive present corporate culture ethical and moral collapse? Cookie Roberts' phrase offers a great insight: "None that matters."
I suppose that if David Bunnell were in November to begin publishing a magazine called Beachside, he could then claim that he didn't really close Upside magazine last month?
No, The New York Times didn't get wrong its story about the closure of Silicon Alley Reporter. SAR closed, when belly-up, kaput.
Calacanis didn't like the bad press stories about SAR's have failure generated -- particular because such stories made him look like a failure in the eyes of prospective advertisers for his new magazine.
