We know a lot of you are probably already off of work, enjoying your fancy “Summer Fridays,” but we’re still here dammit. So listen up! Or read up, whatever.

Yesterday FishbowlNY told you that newspapers sales were down almost 10 percent for Q1, and today – on a Friday no less – we’ve got more bad news. According to Folio:, magazine newsstand sales were down as well, by about six percent. The decline by the numbers:

Sales for the quarter totaled $987 million, down almost 6 percent from same period last year, which recorded just over $1.04 billion in retail sales.

Folio: says that high gas prices were likely behind the slump, and notes that the recent big news cycle (bin Laden, Royal Wedding) will probably pick things up for Q2.

More Bill Keller news! Well, kind of. This is slightly different. This is about Bill Keller’s wife, Emma Gilbey Keller, and their family. She wrote a great piece for Vanity Fair in which she discusses how their lives were forever intertwined with breaking news and headlines while Bill worked as Executive Editor of the New York Times.

It’s an aspect that doesn’t get discussed: How living with the head of the most powerful paper in the world means intimate family moments are often recalled along with the news cycle. Gilbey Keller explains:

This—this knitting of headlines and family dramas—has turned my memories into a composite of what’s happened both inside and outside of our house. Four years ago this month, I remember standing in a Long Island field, watching Alice ride as I dialed Bill in South Africa. He was there with Molly, and they were waiting to meet Nelson Mandela—but the purpose of my call was to tell Bill his mother had just died. Or the Sunday of President Obama’s inauguration weekend, where we shared a family breakfast on our trip, quietly celebrating Bill’s 60th birthday.

Head over to Vanity Fair’s site for the rest of the piece, it’s certainly worth your time.

Just in time for barbecue season, Food Network Magazine has launched its first iPad app. The app – available for $3.99 in iTunes - aligns with the magazine’s June issue, which is focused on grilling.

Some features that come with the app include over 125 recipes, how-to videos and grilling trivia. Maile Carpenter, Food Network Magazine’s Editor-in-Chief, hopes that the app will take advantage of the iPad platform.

“The Food Network Magazine app has all of the energy of our pages, plus functionality that makes it even easier to shop for ingredients and make great food – and have fun doing it,” she said.

It’s a great idea for the magazine. The portability will make using it next to the grill effortless; much easier than looking at a recipe on an iPhone. If anyone is going to use the app at their barbecue, you should know that the FishbowlNY staff is great company. Just saying…

Jill Abramson, the most intriguing person in the media right now, gave an interview last night to Jessica Yellin at CNN about what it means to be the first female executive editor of the New York Times.

Yellin asked Abramson about Bill Keller‘s very public feud with Arianna Huffington, where he notoriously said about AOL’s acquisition of Huffington Post that “Buying an aggregator and calling it a content play is a little like a company’s announcing plans to improve its cash position by hiring a counterfeiter.”

So can we expect more shots fired from the new Times executive editor? Unlikely. Abramson said to Yellin:

I think that, you know, the aggregation of pieces of journalism that, you know, other news organizations have paid dearly to like get the story, get it right, tell the story behind the story, is — you know, poses a threat to us in some ways.

But I respect the fact that an awful lot of people like to read that way.  And, in some cases, I think “The Huffington Post” has been inventive and presents what it aggregates well.  So, you know, I don’t see myself — I’ve known Arianna Huffington since the early ’90s in Washington.  She is an inventive person.  I certainly don’t want to be in a war with her.

Probably a wise move. Yellin observed: “I can detect a change in tone at the top already.”

Abramson also had positive forecasts for both the Times digital and print.  She called the new paywall very successful so far, and said the number of people who have had print subscriptions for over two years has actually increased in the past year.

Video of the interview with Yellin is after the jump.

For those of you who care about actors who aren’t really actors and writers who aren’t really writers, we have great news for you: Lauren Conrad will be guest editing Lucky’s Tumblr next week.

Conrad – the magazine’s latest cover girl – will be engaging readers on a variety of subjects that all have to do with her:

Be sure to ask her some questions about anything you like—her new blog and online community, LaurenConrad.com, her beauty site, Paper Crown or anything else that comes to mind.

Sounds fab!

If there’s anyone who doesn’t know who Lauren Conrad is, consider yourself, well, lucky.

A reporter for an Austrailian News Corp. owned newspaper – Perth Now – accidentally published a fake story about Rupert Murdoch getting married for the fourth time. Adweek reports that Nancy McDonald was typing out fake stories while training on the paper’s content system, but things got interesting when the fake stories got published.

Aside from the headline “Perth Now journalist Ashlee Mullany has married her long-term boyfriend and boss News Ltd. owner Rupert Murdoch in a shotgun wedding yesterday,” a story on one of Jonas Brothers made its way online too. And to make matters worse for McDonald, the Murdoch headline was picked up by another News Corp. paper.

If McDonald somehow keeps her job, FishbowlNY has one tiny suggestion for her: Next time you write fake copy, maybe, just maybe, keep the name of your boss/overlord out of it.
