More than six weeks into the celebrity weekly coverage of the family's struggles, Gosselin fatigue has yet to fell the nation.

Case in point: According to different industry sources, last week's issue of People magazine with Jon opening up about his marriage was one of the year's best selling -- some early estimates have sales hitting the 1.8 million mark. (A rep for People says, "While it's too early to give an exact sales number, we can say that it looks to be a very strong seller for People.")

During editorial meetings at several weeklies, the decision over who to devote resources to came down to a choice between the Gosselins and the Jolie-Pitts.

"We never thought that there'd be a reality show couple not just vying for ink in the pages, but selling on par with the Jolie-Pitts," one editor said. That's terrifying.
