Regarding Conde Nast publisher, Mudcatters may be interested to know that myself and other members of the Graphic Artists Guild and the Illustrators Partnership of America, hundreds of professional artists, years ago protested the Rights-grabbing contract Conde Nast installed for their publications. Most professional illustrators refused to sign the new Conde Nast contract and years later, the issue is still not resolved.
If you support workers' rights and unions, boycott Conde Nast publications.
Here is a 2002 letter from IPA to those of us who joined the protest.
