NEED — the Humanitarian Magazine — Launches "Screw the Man, Save the World" Campaign

In an industry that will reinvent itself or become obsolete, NEED magazine is eliminating commercial advertisements from its pages in favor of an entirely subscription-based fundraising model. If successful, the humanitarian magazine's nationwide "Screw the Man, Save the World" campaign could transform business models and mean the end of print advertising.
