“Breaking News” (10:39 AM NY Time):

In unfortunate timing for Jann Wenner, who just put Rolling Stone up for sale, the 2nd Circuit Court of Appeals has revived a defamation lawsuit over the magazine’s infamous story about the gang rape of a freshman identified as “Jackie” at a University of Virginia campus fraternity.

What would Dr. Hook think?

Well, we’re big rock singers
We got golden fingers
And we’re loved everywhere we go (that sounds like us)
We sing about beauty and we sing about truth
At ten-thousand dollars a show (right)
We take all kinds of pills that give us all kind of thrills
But the thrill we’ve never known
Is the thrill that’ll gitcha when you get your picture
On the cover of the Rollin’ Stone
want to see my picture on the cover
(Stone)Wanna buy five copies for my mother (yes)
(Stone)Wanna see my smilin’ face
On the cover of the Rollin’ Stone (that’s a very very good idea)

Vox, Buzzfeed and Vice have all been mentioned as possible suitors. But as one music veteran pointed out, “Rolling Stone has a brand identity for baby boomers and Gen X — but it has almost no resonance with millennials.”

I don't think Millennials (and younger) buy, or even read magazines, period. Even to go take a dump, they've got their smart phone with them.

And, as for the sex and drugs, E tu Mark Seliger?
