Over it's history, Sports Illustrated was the home for a lot of great authors and photographers. One of those was Kenny Moore - marathoner turned journalist. In those days before multiple sports channels and social media it had an important role. To be honest I haven't paid any attention to it since it's last big purge. Walter Iooss captured so many great images on film.

It was such a huge part of my growing up and learning about sports. I remember seeing it every week in the library and then I saved up enough money to get a subscription when I was maybe 10 and had a subscription for about 20 years after that.
Amazing writing and covered more than just the "big 4 sports" especially in the 70s.
It was one of the week's highlights when it arrived. Faces in the Crowd was sort of fun and then going back to see people who later became superstars.
I think The Athletic is close to what SI was and not limited by ad space and more immediate.
Printed magazines are just dinosaurs today. I loved Sports Illustrated back in the day, but I haven't read one of their magazines in decades. I'm surprised it lasted this long.
Good riddance. It jumped the shark when it put Caitlyn Jenner on the cover and I've been rooting for it to fail ever since.
I had to look that one up because I thought it might be false news. NO, it actually happened. ON that occasion they did not appear in a bikini or USA uniform, but they did appear. It's just like all the non-binary commercials on TV. Do you still believe that we do not need a new presidential candidate! As we used to say in the 1970s, "YOU MUST BE HIGH."

There is so much good left in our world, do we have to trample it?

They've put trans people in the swimsuit issue since then, even one on the cover. That was just the start.
