April Fool's Gay: Or Good News Week?

Fagburn's first thought on reading this story in The Pink Paper this morning - 'Editor Tris Reid-Smith leaves Pink Paper' - was that it was an April Fool.
But no, it appears to be true.
Reid-Smith has been editor of The Pink Paper for ten years and GT for two, and now he is neither.
His reign has been so successful the Pink Paper was closed down in 2004.
Resurrected by Millivres, Reid-Smith ensured such continued success that the print edition was closed again in 2009.
The current online-only version Pinkpaper.com prints such drivel it's hard to believe Mr Reid-Smith ever checks the copy.
In its typically illiterate and pig ignorant style the Pink's story on Tris leaving forgets to mention he's also resigning as editor of GT (Gay Times).
He was also consultant editor of AXM magazine - that stopped printing in 2008.
Reid-Smith was appointed editor of GT (Gay Times) in 2009 - and bizarrely tried to change it into the recently deceased, low-selling AXM (the GT editorial staff were pretty much replaced by people from AXM), dumbing and younging it down with covers about reality and talent show non-entities no-one gives a fuck about, driven by a populist agenda by a dweeb with no grasp of popular culture.
By printing pointless crap countless free gay magazines are full of, Tris Reid-Smith further alienated GT's dedicated readership without attracting new ones - will Gay Times go "online-only" next?
What a glittering career!
