Chess Lies magazine-- trash, churned out

I was looking at the latest issue at breakfast and a tiny bit of
grease from my bagel fell on the page. I tried to wipe it off, and
the ink immediately ran and smeared becoming instantly illegible.

Not only poor writing, poor articles, but poor production.... and yet
we can't opt out in our membership, we have to pay for the thing
whether we want it or not.

It's barely changed since I first read it in the 1960s --- bad then,
bad now. It even just about looks the same.
