Tina walks tall as 'New Yorker' chief falls
Article Abstract:
Tom Florio has been replaced as New Yorker Pres by his older brother Steven, Conde Nast Publications Chief Executive. This follows the former's failure to bring the magazine into profit. The magazine's financial problems have partly been caused by editor Tina Brown, who has an annual budget of $35 million and pays large sums of money to writers. Brown's position seems secure, as she has managed to boost the magzine's circulation by almost one-third to around 808,000 since she became editor in 1992.

Give that man a decoration
Article Abstract:
Interior design magazine Wallpaper* offers escapism, according to founder and editor Tyler Brule. The magazine, which was launched in Sep 1996, has already gained considerable respect, and has now been purchased by Time Inc. It attracted the attention of this company because it has a global attitude and addresses people who have integrated lives. The magazine currently has a circulation of 30,000, but Time Inc has not only purchased it for its circulation and profit potential.
