This'd be a little less disingenuous if it didn't appear as a front page story right when the A1Lite press has 'the public' looking, after sitting on ANN for what, at least a week?
That said, I've only skimmed it, but it's not that bad. If something has to be 'bad,' it's running it as a boldfaced headline, implying it's a shock come out of the blue, making it look like all the recent *good* news was some sort of last gasp before the doors were shuttered. (When, as it's played out, they were shuttered about a year ago, and somehow things have managed to still stagger on and near the point of shipping.)
This is also the first time I've seen the official-looking 'Staff Writer' heading and such, at least in quite a while; I can buy that with the launch of the magazine, but I'm sure someone's having a chuckle over it. Just as they are with the giant AMIGA and the tiny little (.org) patch on the cover.
I'm not calling doom, gloom, or even shenanigans on anyone, but at this point, I reserve the right to sigh and chuckle when anyone wants me to take any of it seriously, especially disclaimers of bias from any side. :-P
Hey, we're only human!
