...hard facts are that Gourmet, whose whole reason for being was its lushness, was an expensive magazine to produce. It had a famous editor, Ruth Reichl, a former food critic of the New York Times and the author of several best sellers. Since taking over in 1999, she steered the periodical to three National Magazine Awards. That level of achievement is pricey, and at just over 900,000 subscribers, Gourmet had only about two-thirds of the readers of Bon Appétit. Plus, it made less money per page of advertising.

...British media-law expert Razi Mireskandari, whose firm Simon Muirhead & Burton has successfully defended the publication of sexually explicit photographs by Robert Mapplethorpe in the U.K., says Tate Modern would be unlikely to lose an obscenity case. The U.K.'s Obscene Publications Act defines as "obscene material" anything that would "tend to deprave and corrupt" the public. "That doesn't mean just 'upset or put off,' " says Mireskandari. But, he notes, the U.K.'s Protection of Children Act might come into play. "The key tests would be whether the child is posed provocatively, whether there was an element of lewdness...
