Why iSubscribe?

The envelope ought to have been warning enough, bearing the sentence ‘we’re sorry it came to this.’ Inside it didn’t get much better with dramatic declarations like ‘it hurts me deeply that you’ll be left out of these life-changing moments.’ It may sound like the desperate pleadings of a jilted lover, but in fact this is a letter Adrienne LaFrance, staff writer at The Atlantic, received after she cancelled her subscription to Harper’s magazine.


 


Posted on LaFrance’s Twitter account she has lovingly annotated the letter with words of reassurance like ‘its ok, no really, it’s going to be ok!' Circulation VP closes the letter with the offer of some renewal coupons, and an exasperated LaFrance suggesting that the whole thing may be just a little too dramatic.
