Magazines and you

March 28, 2004 07:46 PM posted by alison : track it (1)

Please put on your imagination caps. You have been granted the position of editor for a new feminist magazine. Your budget is not a problem, allowing you to be picky about writers and advertising. What would this magazine look like? Who would be your target audience and why? What types of articles would you have and who would write for them? What would be featured on the cover? To follow up on the question from last week, if popular culture figures such as Christina and Britney (or pink, jessica simpson, avril l. and so on) wanted to be on the cover, what would you cite as your standards and would they be featured?
I'm hoping this hasn't been covered - the topic I was going to post was done last summer. If it has, I apologize!

I'd like to make a magazine that gave people more tools for thought and action - that is, one that was actually about enabling choice, which I think is the core of feminism. It wouldn't be so much a women's magazine, though. More detail on my blog.
