I am with you on this one! I was a faithful and paid subscriber to Mode and waited every month for a new issue. I was sad to see it go. But in its place, I now read Lucky magazine!! Great for those who love to shop, shop, and shop!
Now as for Mike, Oprah, Mary Kate & Ashley, Rosey and the rest of these celebs turned publishers-- they all suck in my opinion. And while Mike may be a great basketball player, it takes more than a 3 pointer to run a successful (meaning profitable) magazine. Magazine publishing is an expensive and BRUTAL business, so I hope he has found the right demographic and done the best market research possible.
My prediction-- one year in publication.

I miss Mode, because it showed quality clothes on women size 12 and up.
