New Magazine to Sell Using Homicide as a Theme?
Denver is getting a new bi-weekly called Bias. Targeted to a young audience, Westword reports that the promotional materials indicate that sex and homicide are the themes.
Among the first items in a sample issue of Bias magazine that's been shown to potential clients in recent months is "Drink to the Lost," a feature urging readers to "Find your luck in living with this fun murder map!" An accompanying street guide of downtown Denver spotlights locales where prominent slayings took place, along with toasts to the victims. Guzzlers are encouraged to laud assassinated talk-show host Alan Berg with this remark: "If we're all to be mowed down for the shit we talk, then the devil's got a full clip for each of us."
Here's a promise from the promo material:
[Bias] "will help you carve up your market like Jeff Dahmer at a Rohypnol party."
It's a bit of a surprise who's funding the publication:
< U.S. Blocking Reparations to Gulf War I Hostages | Bush's Sneaky Supplemental War Budget > |
