So this has been bothering me since the Frankfurters left Mishpacha – not a single editor has been added to their roster, yet their product has not only continued on it’s previous path, IMHO, it has gotten a lot more professional, exciting, and polished. Is it really possible to run an entire magazine on a bare-bones staff of three editors (according to their masthead)?

December 30, 2010 3:18 pm at 3:18 pm #722850artchillParticipantOf course it’s possible.
Ingredients:
1 Good scheduler (sets deadlines for article submission, layout, printing)
1 Editor to check submissions for errors
1 Editor to determine whether the articles meet the corporate quality standards
7 Professional authors who understand the corporate quality standards.
The Mishpacha editors have done loads of research and understand their clientele. This enables them to consistently improve and offer quality to their loyal readers. Mishpacha readers expect in-depth and balanced reporting, articles that enable the readers to draw their own lesson instead of being missionized, and articles written in straightforward ENGLISH as opposed to legalese or Yeshivishese!!

So it’s not like everything’s going to happen these last three or four weeks.

Whats cool is they didn’t miss a single week despite the fact that the editor left on a dime, they just kept marching on. There were all kinds of rumors back then, but they seem quite ok.
