SPECIAL SURVEY REPORT [caption id="attachment_139065" align="alignright" width="300"] SPONSORED BY:[/caption] One might expect recent layoffs, consolidations, frequency reductions, and closures in magazine media would have the industry feeling gloomy about its future, but a new survey of Folio: readers shows the opposite.   Nearly seven in 10 Folio: readers surveyed in the Folio: 2018 Magazine Media Investment and Operations Survey said that they expected revenue to go up next year, with 22 percent saying that they anticipated seeing double-digit increases.
