a couple more links I stumbled on relating to "The Source" and their decline in readership and credibility.
This first one is a three-parter. Written by the music editor of The Source in it's heyday. It's a must read for all hip hop fans with more than a cursory interest in its history.

Part 2
Part 3
This second one is an amusing story by a copy-editor who was there briefly, but what he saw was very telling.
I work for a radio network in which we have a show that is ostensibly about home-based business. In reality, it is an uninformative, glamorized infomercial. For some reason, the above comment from "anonymous" triggered that thought.
