Even as its namesake grapples with the likelihood of a prison term after her conviction on charges of lying to investigators about a personal stock sale, Martha Stewart Living Omnimedia has acquired a pair of publications focused on healthy lifestyles.
The company reportedly is spending $6 million to buy Body & Soul magazine from New Age Publishing Inc., and Dr. Andrew Weil's Self Healing newsletter from Thorne Communications Inc.
The purchases come even as the company’s flagship, Martha Stewart Living, is dealing with a steep decline in advertising.

Presumably, the company bought Body & Soul because Prison Life was no longer available.
But if they’re looking for an appropriate Internet property, they should look no farther than www.ThePamperedPrisoner.com.
No kidding. Check it out.
