MAGAZINE ANNOUNCES FIFTH ANNUAL "FAILURE OF THE YEAR" Critically acclaimed Web magazine names the American Voter as "Failure of the Year" for 2004

New York—Failure magazine—www.failuremag.com—the Web publication covering all things failure, today named the American Voter as its fifth annual "Failure of the Year™" in a bold commentary by editor, Jason Zasky.

"We considered naming the Bush administration as 'Failure of the Year' for the second consecutive year," says Zasky, "but ultimately decided that the only thing more embarrassing than the Bush team's performance in 2004 was the fact that Americans chose to give the administration four more years."

Failure magazine's annual "Failure of the Year" debuted in December of 2000 with The Breakdown of the Israeli-Palestinian Peace Process. The next year Failure named Terrorism as "Failure of the Year" 2001, followed by the Augusta National Controversy in 2002, and the Bush administration in 2003.

Here is what the media and critics have said about Failure: The Boston Globe described Failure as "exquisitely against the grain." "Forget Forbes and Fortune," said The San Francisco Chronicle, "this is the best place (and perhaps only) place on the Net to keep abreast…." AtNewYork.com said, "Smart and savvy describes the content, filled with lots of historical tidbits that should keep the competitive-minded winners of the world salivating for more."

Covering stories large and small, historical and current, Failure and its nationally recognized writers explore the world of arts & entertainment, business, science & technology, history, and sports with a bold perspective that is insightful, informative and entertaining.

Failure Magazine LLC is a privately owned and operated media company featuring Failure magazine™ and FailureWear™.
