      <![CDATA[As Venable mentioned, they are a nonprofit. I mean, no one is thrilled when NPR does a pledge drive or Sierra Club sends out direct mail asking for $ and yet they don't act like NPR/SC shouldn't exist because they are member-supported nonprofits and have to do fundraising on a regular basis.

      <![CDATA[Clearly their business model is not working out for them, as they've had to ask for help before, but I don't think asking for cash contradicts their "voice for feminism."<br>
The two are not related.

      <![CDATA[Perhaps in today's age of media, Bitch could become an exclusively online magazine, for a lot cheaper. I agree with Venable; the magazine has an important role to play in our society, but perhaps they can achieve the same goals (and have better outreach to new readers) for a lot cheaper in an online form than in the dead-tree magazine.

      <![CDATA[Jezebel has an entry on Bitch as well and highlights the fact that they are a non-profit organization. <br>
<br>
It does seem as if because of the magazine's goals, they weren't going to have a huge subscriber base. Plus, limiting their ads (print and online) to those who align with their mission isn't going to make them much money, either.<br>
<br>
I wish them luck, but there are other businesses out there with a better product who are at risk of going under.
