While serving in the U.S. Army in Europe in the 1950s, he got the travel bug, came out with a travel guide for servicemen, and followed up in 1957 with…

Hal, excuse this question from a writer who's not a travel writer: Are you saying that the Belize Tourism Board favors online writers over newspaper and magazine writers? Isn't that the opposite of what other boards do?
@John - re: your Belize question - the media contact for the Belize Tourism Board for north Am. media is a firm called BVK. However, they won't help you out with a single thing unless you're in with their circle of bloggers and beware if you ever did print. That includes even sending you a press release, & their people never return calls. You're just better off sidelining them & contacting directly the individual PR repping properties or activities, if you need help them message me - I have a few such.
Thanks Janice!

Does anyone have PR contacts for Belize? Thanks! John
This is an interesting decision because of the long-range implications. It doesn’t give artists what they want now, but could cap future copyright gabs as the on-line business evolves. And if one jurisdiction thinks this way, could it serve as an insight into how other courts will think?

Last numbers I saw had T&L at 92 out of 100 in circulation. No other travel mags in the top 100. Sad... The Internet killed the magazine star!
I doubt any travel magazine was ever in the top 10, circ-wise, but circ isnt everything. There is something to be said for pure, special interest audiences when it comes to buying/selling advertising especially in the travel market where most advertisers want the affluent. My magazine has 54,000,000 readers, but other than state/city CVBs and tourism boards we dont get a lot of travel advertising because most travel marketers only want HH $100,000+
