Hillary Rosner bemoans the fact that all of this year's American Society of Magazine Editors awards finalists were men. In this pair of blog posts she says that magazines aimed at women avoid long narratives: "Guess what, women’s mags: I’m a woman, and I have a really busy life, and I read magazine stories longer than 1000 words. I’m pretty sure I’m not the only one. Does anyone else find this attitude incredibly offensive toward women?"
