People Magazine
A slightly more respectable way to get some dirt on the stars...
by knotheadusc
Pros: Some good articles. Articles about normal folks.
Cons: Gotten trashier over the years.
At one time, I was an avid reader of People Magazine. I had a subscription and looked forward to getting a new issue every week, so I could read all about the stars and some "real people", too. I still like to read People, but not quite ...

Cons: None
When I got engaged last summer, I remember my mom telling me, "Oh, I'll start taking notes from Martha. She's always got great ideas...you could probably use them for your wedding!" Yeah, right, sure, mom, I thought. Martha Stewart? The ...

Martha Stewart Living Magazine 12 Issues New Subscriptions
Is This Living Or What?
by nagels
Pros: Looks classy on the coffee table. Great subscription price.
Cons: Too many ads. Needs more tips of a practical nature.
Something’s wrong with that picture, the one on the coffee table. In my mind I think back to picnics past and try to visualize the weather worn picnic table at the local park on the Chesapeake Bay. On the grill hot dogs are sizzling. Covering the ...

I do my best to stay healthy. It helps to have great exercise DVDs and friends who nudge (such as my walking buddy at work). I also like reading Fitness Magazine. It includes much more than exercise routines. The Basics Fitness ...

by SimianFox
Pros: Good value, okay player analysis, some insightful articles
Cons: A lot of recycled material, only 4 issues per year
I have been a subscriber to Fantasy Sports for about a year. While I am pleased with some of their content, I find that they are lacking in depth of analysis and are mostly for novice and slightly intermediate rotisserie baseball and fantasy football ...

Wwe Magazine
WWE Magazine: A Battle of the Eyes
by keithpruitt
Pros: Will feed fans' thirst for more
Cons: Advertising tool for WWE, visual overload, weak writing, editorial supervision
There is a script, characters and roles. The characters play the roles, win or loose, and have to be able to take a pounding physically. Sometimes they loose their composure and bad things happen. More often than not, they get hurt. Sometimes really ...

Paste Magazine
A Fresh Look At Independent Music, CD Sampler Is Great!
by SimianFox
Pros: Music on CD sampler is excellent, fresh perspectives, accurate reviews
Cons: None that I can think of right now
Let me start out by saying I am a fan of Paste Magazine. I consider their journalistic style to be fresh, creative, and unique in the music industry. Of course they are a smaller, less known magazine, compared to Rolling Stone, Blender, Vibe, etc., but ...

Cons: You are paying for ads…and mostly, only ads! It is a catalog.
Game Trade Magazine (GTM) is a monthly catalog of games, books, and genre DVD’s coming out 2 months in the future. It is a monthly catalog that tries to thinly disguise itself as a magazine. Coming in around 50-70 pages (depending on the ...

GQ Magazine
Best overall fashion magazine by far!
by wrldtravler
Pros: Great for overall readers. Plenty of variety. Beautiful ads.
Cons: Very left leaning politically. Fashion geared more towards big cities than typical American market.
I do some part time work in the fashion industry and find GQ very helpful for that. It is also great to read because it has a little mix of everything. You don't necessarily need to be into fashion to read the magazine. They usually carry at least one ...

Pros: Up to date news in a weekly magazine.
Cons: Lots of full page ads, too much focus on politics.
I'm not sure how U.S. News & World Report Magazine came to find it's way into my mailbox because I usually catch the news on the radio all day long and the local news once I get home from work, and sometimes even the late news. Why would I think ...

Cons: Lots of advertising, and more advertising
Yeah, I know all the jokes at this point. It’s all downhill from here, my friends reminded me. But my response was that it has been downhill since I turned 40, so I’m getting use to it. Besides it doesn’t take as much energy to go down hill, so ...

Maxim Magazine
How did the king of men's magazines fall so far, so fast?
by Chad9976
Pros: breezy pop culture style; obscure news; cool technology info (sorta); the covers
Cons: articles too succinct; too bourgeoisie-oriented; no longer funny; no more amateurs’ pics
Here’s irony for you: I’m going to criticize Maxim magazine for being entirely too mature. That’s right; this magazine’s inherent flaw is that it’s no longer the “Frat Boy Monthly” it used to be. Why is that bad? Because Maxim ...

Pros: Simple, healthful recipes are easy to prepare.
Cons: You need a recipe to figure out how to make waffles?

She’s a modern female conglomerate, a stunningly successful woman morphing into an empire unto herself ala Martha Stewart and Oprah. One has only to visit her web site to take in the depth and extent of all that is Rachael. Yes, the trademark thirty ...
