Vaporzine roundup: The NY Daily News’ Paul Colford (Hot Copy) rounds up a “lengthening list” of magazines that will may launch later this year, or, what on the rexblog, we call vaporzines. One of the titles, Reality Bites Check, a magazine from Primedia focusing on reality TV shows and contestants (and a sure sign of the Apocalypse), launched this week, making what on the rexblog, we call an ex-vaporzine.
