Pizarro: San Jose Magazine ending publication after 11-year run

By Sal Pizarro
Mercury News

The December issue of San Jose Magazine — hitting mailboxes and newsstands in the next few days — will be its last after 11 years of publication.

The mag is still making money, but publisher Gilbert Sangari says it’s time to shift resources to the company’s fast-growing video-production arm, which was launched three years ago.
By next month, the company will be producing more than two dozen 30-minute shows a month for KRON-TV under the “Best of the Bay” label, featuring everything from Italian restaurants to tanning salons in five Bay Area counties.

It’ll be sad news for readers of the 34,000-circulation mag, which had regular columns from familiar Silicon Valley faces including Leigh Weimers, Murry Frymer, Larry Gerston and Carl Guardino. more

Mr. Sangari’s blatant political biases (in otherwise innocous ‘notes from publisher’) caused me to cancel after two issues.

Looks like your comment filter is broken on this article—comments can slip right through, unobserved and unedited. Might want to look into that.

I’m amazed this magazing lasted as long as it did. I work in a dentist’s office and I saw it every month. I figured it would have to fold once they ran out of local bay area anchor persons to put on the cover.

The magazing was almost completely bereft of actual content. What am I going to use as a resource if I need plastic surgery or a McMansion in the Evergreen?
