      <![CDATA[As an ad based publication, such as the Stranger, certainly you guys must also be feeling the crunch?<br />
<br />
BTW, Isn't the front cover for The Stranger basically your own ad?<br />
<br />
If the publication is struggling (as all pubs are these days) selling front page ad space (at a premium) makes sense, kind of like Target buying every ad in the New Yorker a couple years ago.
