It's perfectly understandable when you consider the intended audience --
mainly drooling misogynist marketing-dregree droids in terminally
uncomfortable business suits who buy the magazines to look at the pretty
artwork cluttered by all those long words before allowing the decision to
give in to the Microsoft BackOffice sales rep to be made for them. I tend
to go into ego-protected mode when I read "financial news"
rags^H^H^H^Htabloids^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^Hdrivel anyway.
