22
00:02:06.300 --> 00:02:10.560
My bones come from the forest, the pages to which millions turn,

23
00:02:10.660 --> 00:02:12.780

24

I am a book.

197
00:10:40.400 --> 00:10:41.600
Magazine pages.

198
00:10:42.540 --> 00:10:45.260
The meeting place between the reader and the idea.

199
00:10:46.500 --> 00:10:48.680
Yet if these pages are my bones,

200
00:10:49.440 --> 00:10:51.920
then my editor's thoughts are my lifestream.

201
00:10:53.020 --> 00:10:56.220
As an editor, I feel that one element makes the difference

202
00:10:56.220 --> 00:10:58.740
between the success or failure of a magazine.

203
00:10:59.400 --> 00:11:02.540
That is, when people sense that something is being done

204
00:11:02.540 --> 00:11:06.080
that's unlike anything they're getting anywhere else,

205
00:11:06.300 --> 00:11:07.780
because someone cares.

206
00:11:08.900 --> 00:11:10.620
Hear the voices of my many editors.

207
00:11:11.780 --> 00:11:14.720
It is their perceptiveness that creates the rapport

208
00:11:14.720 --> 00:11:17.000
that exists between reader and magazine.

209
00:11:18.240 --> 00:11:18.700
Listen.

210
00:11:20.440 --> 00:11:24.520
A really great editor is one who vibrates a little ahead of the time.

211
00:11:25.120 --> 00:11:27.440
Such an editor becomes a leader of opinion.

212
00:11:28.020 --> 00:11:31.200
As they turn his pages, the reader reactions will be,

213
00:11:31.200 --> 00:11:33.700
Oh, how true. Why didn't I think of that myself?

214
00:11:34.200 --> 00:11:38.140
Or, that's what I've always believed, but I could never put it into words.

215
00:11:40.240 --> 00:11:44.900
The things that we put in our magazine are in response to the concern of our readers.

216
00:11:45.720 --> 00:11:48.820
Therefore, what we're doing is talking back to them,

217
00:11:49.400 --> 00:11:54.040
enlightening and encouraging them with answers to questions that they're asking.

218
00:11:54.760 --> 00:11:59.880
By empathizing with them, by sharing common interests, common concerns,

219
00:11:59.880 --> 00:12:02.320
we're definitely communicating.

220
00:12:04.260 --> 00:12:07.760
In our particular magazine, we try to help that reader.

221
00:12:08.540 --> 00:12:13.100
We help him conquer that feeling of inadequacy that almost every man has

222
00:12:13.100 --> 00:12:15.180
in the world the way it is today.

223
00:12:17.020 --> 00:12:18.940
We always aim for a point of view.

224
00:12:19.500 --> 00:12:22.820
A story without a point of view is a bland, meaningless thing.

225
00:12:23.740 --> 00:12:26.340
It would be presumptuous of me to say that this point of view

226
00:12:26.340 --> 00:12:28.260
is going to agree with so many different people,

227
00:12:28.260 --> 00:12:33.600
but if the readers edit us, we might as well turn on the union card.

228
00:12:35.380 --> 00:12:39.060
It doesn't take long to find out that readers can't tell you what they want in advance.

229
00:12:39.660 --> 00:12:43.680
It's like the statement that Roxy made when he stood at the theater entrance

230
00:12:43.680 --> 00:12:45.900
watching the audience come out after the show.

231
00:12:46.200 --> 00:12:49.980
He said, people always know what they want after they've seen it.

232
00:12:50.140 --> 00:12:51.940
Well, that's the way it is with magazines.

233
00:12:53.840 --> 00:13:00.660
Maybe it sounds corny, but there's no room on a magazine for a lady in the dark.

234
00:13:01.200 --> 00:13:04.800
You've got to be out there in the blaze where things are going on

235
00:13:04.800 --> 00:13:09.380
to be just plain snoopy, but on a very high level.

236
00:13:10.860 --> 00:13:14.340
I feel that there is a contract between editor and reader.

237
00:13:14.920 --> 00:13:20.400
The reader elects to take and read the magazine on the strength of certain representations by the magazine

238
00:13:20.400 --> 00:13:22.340
as to what its purpose is.

239
00:13:23.160 --> 00:13:26.680
The editor's job is to see that the reader gets what he's been led to expect.

240
00:13:27.740 --> 00:13:29.340
You cheat if you give less.

241
00:13:29.620 --> 00:13:33.740
You've wasted the reader's time, and he's going to hold it bitterly against you

242
00:13:33.740 --> 00:13:35.880
if he wastes his time week after week.

243
00:13:37.360 --> 00:13:40.740
We feel that our readers are a lot smarter than surveys show,

244
00:13:41.060 --> 00:13:42.980
so we don't try to talk down to them.

245
00:13:43.480 --> 00:13:47.140
We assume they know a heck of a lot about foreign affairs and books and science,

246
00:13:47.660 --> 00:13:49.520
and reader response proves it to be true.

247
00:13:49.520 --> 00:13:53.720
Some surveys tell us not to run stories on science, but we do run them,

248
00:13:53.920 --> 00:13:55.660
and they turn out to be enormously popular.

249
00:13:57.600 --> 00:14:03.520
Every year we all go out with magazine in hand and have a number of good visits with readers somewhere,

250
00:14:04.620 --> 00:14:07.220
usually in the kitchen over a pot of coffee.

251
00:14:07.980 --> 00:14:13.400
The biggest thing we bring back is their comment as to why they did or didn't read something.

252
00:14:13.400 --> 00:14:19.200
Any one of our editors with a sensitive ear should come back with an awful lot of clues

253
00:14:19.200 --> 00:14:22.180
to guide him in the making of upcoming issues.

254
00:14:24.340 --> 00:14:27.380
A friend of mine who's one of the top men in the electronics field

255
00:14:27.380 --> 00:14:31.360
said that the young man who graduates this year from a school like MIT

256
00:14:31.360 --> 00:14:35.380
will know as much about electronics as he's learned in his entire life.

257
00:14:35.960 --> 00:14:39.120
Yet that young man is going to go on and acquire more knowledge.

258
00:14:39.120 --> 00:14:43.900
It's a race to keep even with our readers who are advancing at a great pace.

259
00:14:44.820 --> 00:14:48.360
We must attempt to anticipate what their interests will be.

260
00:14:48.620 --> 00:14:50.780
We must keep changing all the time.

261
00:15:03.380 --> 00:15:07.720
The world changes, creating new challenges each day.

262
00:15:07.720 --> 00:15:10.560
I am a counselor and a friend.

263
00:15:11.020 --> 00:15:13.900
I am a forum from which my editors speak.

264
00:15:14.720 --> 00:15:15.900
I am experience.

265
00:15:16.740 --> 00:15:20.220
I am responsible, the answer to a million questions.

266
00:15:21.100 --> 00:15:24.140
I am perspective in a world in which all is changing.

267
00:15:25.280 --> 00:15:31.720
On my pages, the ideas and products of American industry can enjoy their greatest moments of receptivity.

268
00:15:33.060 --> 00:15:34.540
I am a magazine.

269
00:15:43.780 --> 00:15:44.420
I am a magazine.

270
00:15:44.800 --> 00:15:44.800


271
00:15:47.120 --> 00:15:48.420
I am a magazine.

272
00:15:48.420 --> 00:15:48.660
I am a magazine.

273
00:15:48.660 --> 00:15:48.660


274
00:15:48.660 --> 00:15:48.740
I am a magazine.

275
00:15:48.740 --> 00:15:49.000
I am a magazine.

276
00:15:49.100 --> 00:15:49.640
I am a magazine.

277
00:15:49.640 --> 00:15:50.400
I am a magazine.

278
00:15:51.340 --> 00:15:51.980
I am a magazine.

279
00:15:52.560 --> 00:15:53.200
I am a magazine.

280
00:15:53.200 --> 00:15:53.580
I am a magazine.

281
00:15:59.260 --> 00:15:59.900
I am a magazine.

282
00:15:59.900 --> 00:15:59.900


283
00:16:00.160 --> 00:16:02.380
I am a magazine.

284
00:16:02.400 --> 00:16:02.500
I am a magazine.

285
00:16:07.920 --> 00:16:08.000
I am a magazine.

286
00:16:08.000 --> 00:16:08.000
