Comments on: Is it a Wrap for Ebony Magazine? Ebony says “exploring range of options” http://www.blackweb20.com/2009/09/28/is-it-a-wrap-for-ebony-magazine-ebony-says-exploring-range-of-options/ The premier destination for African-American’s in Technology and New Media Mon, 13 Feb 2012 18:10:41 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.1 By: Oh Please http://www.blackweb20.com/2009/09/28/is-it-a-wrap-for-ebony-magazine-ebony-says-exploring-range-of-options/comment-page-1/#comment-32220 Oh Please Mon, 05 Oct 2009 19:14:56 +0000 http://www.blackweb20.com/?p=8131#comment-32220 I am not one for insisting rich black folk give hand-outs, under some premise that there are some poor black folk with their hand out begging. This clearly isn't one of those cases. We as blacks have to understand we are stronger if we stand together and here is another moment to show how strong our bonds are. This is an opportunity for some wealthy black folk to pool their money together and buy this INSTITUTION of the black community instead of trying to start record labels or clothing lines. In days were blacks have an ever lessening voice we need to hold on to what is ours. After all there's a reason why Ebony Magazine was created in the first place. We are going to find out why it was needed if it were to be bought outside our community.

Perhaps a stimulus package could be offered to bail out black media (print and electronic ;) It's also indicative of an aging product and brand. It seems inevitable and soooo so sad.

How about sell it to a group of smart "Ebony" people.. I know a few. :) Oh, this is just sad, not Ebony Magazine! How about sell it to a group of smart “Ebony” people.. I know a few. :)
