Blog Post

I will have to admit one of the magazines I do enjoy reading would be US Magazine. This is a weekly magazine. The target audience of the magazine ranges from mostly females from high school age all the way to mid 30’s or higher. It is appealing to people who like to read about “Gossip” in the celebrity world as well as those how are interested in fashion. It has a lot of pop-culture in it and is big in the media. Much of the news in it is about just celebrities but there are a few stories that are big news in the U.S. that are written about from time to time.

The writing style is informal and always includes quotes from different sources. A good majority of the time the sources are anonymous so no one can ever be really sure if what is said in the magazine is true. That seems to be one of the ways the writers catch the reader’s attention. The headline on the front of the magazine is always attention grabbing leaving the reader wanting to know more. It is one of the most popular magazines sold on the stand today, and the entertainment brought by the reporters is never-ending.
