EDITORIAL Propaganda 14 ___ EDITORIAL___________________________ Dear readers, For the second time this very night, I sit down, trying to concentrate writing a few wise words. Normally I should be able to, being a wise man, and all, but somehow inspiration seems to fade. A ciggarette did a bit of the work, but I feel rather empty after hours and hours tapping at the key- board. It has been ages and ages since we last set foot on earth with Propaganda, and reasons have varied. MOTLEY, our beloved hacker was involved in a serious trial shortly after issue 13 was released, and it was a difficult phase for all of us in GENESIS. Having passed such an awful time as it was, we were reluctant in doing anything, but started planning the biggest event of all time on this 8-bit miracle; TRIBUTE 1994, a digital bonanza, an orgy in the culture of the Commodore 64. TRIBUTE 1994 has been most interesting, and enjoyable taking care of, but it has also been a very tiring process. I for one, dedicate over 4O hours a week on the event, hoping to accomplish what you, the visitor, will consider as a wonderful party. It will be. ________________________________________ I'd also like to take the oppurtunity in saluting one of the most valuable performances done on the 64 in the 199O's. THE PULSE is no longer put out, and with it, goes the one and only magazine I respected that dared speak- ing their piece of mind. We may have had our arguments in the past, but both me and DUKE developed a friendship after having dug down our axes, and today I wipe some tears in sorrow with him going away from the 64. The best of luck wherever you go from here, Alex. It is inevitable that a million maga- zines will pop up, similar to the effect when SHOCK disappeared a million years ago. Some will be interesting, some will be worthless, and some will be pointless. However, with an increased amount of magazines, quality will thrive and with thriving quality, the readers will have a wider choice and a better focus on the accurate scene. I'm looking forward to whatever the future will bring magazine-wise, and hope to see some really decent journalism. At this point, I could already name a few that do in fact stand a chance, meeting the demand of the public. ________________________________________ .. - Zzzzz.... -- PROPAGANDA GOES TO THE NET PROPAGANDA GOES TO THE NET ________________________________________ Propaganda 14 is the first issue that will officially be converted and dist- ributed through INTERNET. We are proud in doing so, adapting to the future, and being the first Commodore 64-scene related magazine to set foot there. A whole new world, a brave new world, with many more potential readers. And while we're at it, why aren't you already there? ________________________________________ ** - Yawn... \/ And while we're at it, who said the 64 is dead? Only the ones who couldn't stand the struggle.
