Spotlight on Si

Comments | | Print

(NEW YORK) Does Si Newhouse ever get nervous? On Monday, New York will publish a cover story entitled "Si Newhouse's Dream Factory", which The Daily hears takes a cold, hard look at Condé  Nast's current cash flow situation. The piece was penned by Steve Fishman, who most recently took on Bernie Madoff for the magazine. "Condé Nast’s own stars compare their glossy empire to the MGM of Old Hollywood," reads the teaser, although the story is being kept under lock and key until it hits the web at 10 p.m. on Sunday night. "But no one would wish it the same fate. What happens to a magazine empire built on glossy fantasies when harsher realities intrude?"
