RE: "When a magazine depends almost solely on adv. dollars to survive this publication ceases to be objective"

I can tell you, many years ago, I sent a Vibraplane for review (will not publicly disclose to whom) but it was a major print mag who is still printing and after several months was sent a glowing review. In fact the reviewer actually called me the day the Vibraplane arrived and just couldn't get over what it did! Well after negotiating what I would charge him for the unit (below manufacturer cost) we set up a monthly payment plan. Never saw ANY $$$ and the review was never published. Yes there is politics in our industry just like every other industry to some extent. And yes this reviewer is still writing to this date and there is still controversy over him.
