#5 Is this the same magazine that sold for $1

It was Newsweek, according to US News. The Washington Times also was bought for just $1, but that that appears to have been due to internal Unification Church/Moon family issues.

Time Magazine is being sold for the second time this year, according to the New York Daily News:

Time Magazine is being sold by Meredith Corp. to Marc Benioff, a co-founder of Salesforce and his wife.

The Wall Street Journal reported that the iconic news magazine is being sold for $190 million to Benioff, one of four co-founders of Salesforce, a cloud computing pioneer.

The sale is occurring nearly eight months after Meredith Corp. completed its purchase of Time Inc.

Meredith, the publisher of such magazines as People and Better Homes & Gardens, had put four Time Inc. publications up for sale in March. Negotiations for the sale of the three other publications — Fortune, Money and Sports Illustrated — are continuing.

So nobody really wants the magazine, it’s just that they don’t want it for a good deal more than a dollar in hand to make the sale legal.

#7 One unfortunate side effect has been making real rape victims less likely to be believed.

But as long as it gets Christine and selected Senators their 15 minutes, I guess that is a small price to pay.
