MacWEEK was a weekly paper publication that once had exclusive qualification for its readership. In 1998, as part of a strategy change, the publication was renamed to eMediaWeekly, which caused a number of its existing sponsors to withhold their advertising. Eventually, MacWEEK existed online as part of Mac Publishing's online publication, MacCentral Online. Now it exists simply as an httpredirect to the site.
MacWEEK's anonymous gossip columnist was named Mac the Knife.
MacWeek a.k.a MacLeak is a very useful weekly publication of new developments in the Macintosh world.
This is obviously so that MacWeek can charge a lot for advertising based on the very large purchasing clout of their subscribers.
Since I essentially was running a one-person operation at the time, I immediately offered the only other occupant of my office--Ralph the Gerbil--the position of Vice President, which he accepted, and I dutifully put his name on the form.
I just received this response from the editor of MacWEEK, I wrote it after being infuriated at the stupid review of the Intergraph NT machine verses a G3,it was totally biased, and there was a big hairy Intergraph advetisement on the back of the very page Henry's review was on.
I am now confident that Macweek is subject to bribary and that the content of its articles and reviews are biased and slanted in favor of those who spend money advertising with the magazine.
In addition, MacWEEK has run news articles on a number of NT systems over the past half a year, as PC companies have started to target the content-creation space.
