Chicago Tribune best magazine is not notable

[edit]

The "criteria" that unnamed Chicago Tribune staff members used to determine "best magazine" was not a literary, scientific, educational, or information-based standard. It was merely that a Chicago Tribune staff member paid money for the magazine then put it in the staff members backpack or in their bathroom or coffee table. That is not of any significance.

"Not so long ago, the National Magazine Awards honored a pack of familiar favorites such as The Atlantic Monthly and The New Yorker, offering elaborately eloquent justifications for having so anointed those august publications.
"Tempo chose a simpler route: What we like. We picked out magazines that you'll find on staffers' nightstands and coffee tables, in our backpacks and on our car seats and on the edges of our bathtubs. These are the periodicals for which we pay good money."
