The only thing it shows is the collapse of Sports Illustrated. Just look at any of their recent magazines, especially the swimsuit issues to see how far they’ve gone out of their way to alienate their audience. I mean, one of the covers for the swimsuits this year was Martha Stewart. Who is that for?
- mp05 3y ago> especially the swimsuit issues to see how far they’ve gone out of their way to alienate their audience. Horny 11 year olds?
- horns4lyfe 3y agoHorny dudes in general, ya. That’s their audience, guys who like sports and attractive women. Again, who is the audience for Martha Stewart on the cover?
- cogman10 3y agoThe last people to buy magazines, old horny dudes.
- ceejayoz 3y ago> I mean, one of the covers for the swimsuits this year was Martha Stewart. Who is that for? I mean, it'd fit the demographics of anyone still buying Sports Illustrated swimsuit magazines pretty well. Anyone under 60 presumably just... finds porn online.
- horns4lyfe 3y agoOld dudes don’t all of a sudden stop wanting to see young women in swimsuits though. There was also a trans woman on one cover. So again, who is that for, that would actually pay for it?
- tim333 3y agoYeah I'm not sure that would have been a big win with the subscribers.
- ceejayoz 3y agoI'm sure they lost some subscribers when Tyra Banks appeared on the cover in 1996, too.
- horns4lyfe 3y agoI doubt it, she’s still a beautiful woman in a swimsuit. Comparing her to a trans woman or an 80 year old is silly.
- Gibbon1 3y agoI seem to remember a sports illustrated calendar in the late 80's with a black model. The usual suspects at work were really butthurt that month because they'd flip it over so you couldn't see her and people kept flipping it back.
