The World: International business magazines bite the dust.
Does the closure of Forbes' and BusinessWeek's international editions sound the death knell for paper, Lucy Aitken asks.
BusinessWeek's tongue-in-cheek media predictions for 2006 include a hostile take-over of David Bowie by U2 and a Google brain search programme.
The sober issue of any further international editions of big US print brands biting the dust receives no speculation.
Yet the casualties of 2005 suggest that further closures are possible.
Last year, both Forbes and BusinessWeek shut down their international editions.
As part of a new strategy, Forbes Inc introduced an Asian edition in September, and both Forbes and BusinessWeek have been pushing their websites.As well as more dedicated online content, subscribers to the international editions have been offered the US version.
Some experts claim these closures make sense because producing a magazine is such an expensive affair. But others have damned the moves as short-termist.
