Maxim

The second day of class we discussed magazines and ever were asked to bring one to class. I thought it was odd to actually look at the foremost mens magazines and see the same "formula" on the front cover. Maxim is the most popular men's magazine having over 2.5 million readers (and that was in 1997)! It made me realize the standard at which women are held, there is no way we can look like those women on the cover, even they have to be airbrushed! Our assignment was to go do our own content analysis on a newspaper or news magazine from before the 80's. I was excited to do it and see what I could find.
