The New Yorker is a magazine that is published weekly and reports on multiple topics such as: business, politics, international affairs, and technology. After researching the reader demographics of this magazine I’ve come to discover who actually reads The New Yorker.

The fact that a person would use being published in a magazine to gain a reader’s trust is very irresponsible and it actually hurts their credibility. Magazines are not viewed as an academic source and for this reason most professors do not allow magazines to be a source for their students when writing academic papers. If the article had been published in a more serious book or setting, then the reader would trust the content a lot more rather than being skeptical of the content.

Wall Street Journal utilized the objective facts for the reader to make a decision, while Lainey Gossip showcased the storyline yet intertwined persuasive comments to make the show seem more desirable. These are the defining characteristics of magazine and blog writing: one made a concise summary, while the latter made the review personal and subjective.

These are just some of the ways Playboy has idolized women, but that’s not all that the company and the magazine are about.

Some of the main reasons are the development of technology and the expansion of TV stations, as a result, putting magazines in a rough economic hardship, most people will not pay for a magazine when they can find the information through the Internet or TV.

The three main categories were women’s magazines, men’s magazines, and magazines that appealed to the general interest. Döring and Pöschl (2006) found that 54.8% of pictures of women in the general interest magazines were depicted. Generally, magazines either advertised certain products using people, or have a page for certain celebrities. It was rare to read a magazine that does not have a picture of a woman in it.
