Jane Magazine

Publisher: Condé Nast
Started: September 1997
Shuttered: August 2007
Post-mortem, from Salon.com:

"Jane was never quite able to capture or maintain the cult following of Sassy. It seemed perpetually hamstrung between affecting the tough-smart-indie-rocker-chick persona of its founder and meeting the expectations of a women's magazine advertising climate that encouraged a more traditional "pretty clothes and expensive accessories on skinny girls who diet" aesthetic.

But whatever the successes or failures of Jane, it's sad to bid farewell to a magazine that at least made attempts -- however weak-willed they may have been -- to distinguish itself from the pack. Hasta, Jane."
