Bush during the last campaign that would then be voted on by Moveon members. The winning ads were eventually run on TV. <\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"> This effort by the the <i>New Yorker <\/i> is a move to use the internet and its two-way capacity to convert occasional readers into magazine subscribers, subscribers into web site visitors, and participants in the caption contest into consenting participants who provide an email address to the magazine that can be used in marketing. (The <i>New Yorker<\/i> already has a weekly cartoon newsletter which emails \u201ca sneak peek at a featured cartoon every week.\u201d) <\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"> Who would have thought that this bastion of literary elitism would share a bit of its editorial authority with readers? The rise of the internet is changing the perspective of all kinds of institutions. <\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"> P.S. Eustace Tilley is the name of the famous <i>New Yorker <\/i> character who early-on graced the cover of the magazine with tophat and monocle and was included in stories written by Corey Ford.
