Time Out, New York, and the other fancy-shmancy New York magazines for
the
rich have as their target audiences the shallow and morally deficient.
People with
more money than sense.  Newage types.  Astrology, Botox, and Clubs.

They buy books so they can say they bought them, not because they will
read them.

New York Magazine hasn't been readable since Mary Ann Madden left.
