We Are Done With Transworld
We haven’t even looked at Transworld Skateboarding Magazine since the Loreal Hair-Dye advertisement. We also haven’t even looked at their website since then either. John sent us some mail today and we’ll just go ahead and post his exact words because he wants some answers.
“this is just an idea for an article. i recently read the august 04 transworld and it was awful. a few years back the letter about the “arizona jeans” ad appearing in the magazine was a bad turn, but this issue, terrible. these are some pictures of the articles HERE and HERE not only were those articles in the magazine, but a “right guard” ad was in the magazine along with a virgin mobile ad, motivational speaker “richard smiley” ad, chicklets ad, urban pipeline ad, winterfresh ad, meguiars wax ad, “the perfect score” a film sponsored by mtv ad. what is up with all that? seems like transworld sold out. you guys can’t pass this article up.”
Thanks for doing the dirty work for us John. We wouldn’t have even seen them because we don’t pick it up for that exact reason. Kinda sure the motivational speaker thing is a joke… but that’s a lot of space a real skateboard company could have used. Let the little boys at TWS know that when you put an anti-drug ad in your magazine you can be damn sure the right people are going to kick your pussy asses out of the after-party.
