Gossip magazine - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia This was possibly the first time a gossip magazine had made real efforts to attract readers who weren't members of the elite classes; it didn't presume its readers had a close familiarity with any given social or professional world. The large-circulation gossip magazines eventually gave way to supermarket tabloids, such as the National Enquirer, and to less scandal-oriented celebrity coverage in magazines like People and Us, though small-circulation publications that harken back to the '50s approach have continued to be published. The history of gossip magazines also includes a few eccentric titles that flaunted the usual rules of acceptable taste, such as the sexually explicit Hollywood Star of the 1970s. en.wikipedia.org /wiki/Gossip_magazines   (319 words)

Gossip magazines get a grip on celebrity fixation | The San Diego Union-Tribune Magazines focusing on the lives and loves of celebrities are among the industry's biggest sellers. Celebrity magazines are thriving in an era when more sober publications have seen their numbers dip.

Gossip Magazines | Progressive U But I think the saddest thing about having gossip magazines is that so many people get the majority of news from them. Since gossip magazines aren't going to stop printing the stories about Britany, Christina and Madonna any time soon, I think there are some things that they can do. Gossip magazines are among the most useless inventions we have ever come up with. www.progressiveu.org /182726-gossip-magazines   (558 words)

Did you hear the news on gossip magazines? - Technology - International Herald Tribune Despite a scandal surrounding Page Six, its gossip column, The Post is forging ahead with plans to publish a second issue of Page Six, The Magazine, a glossy version of the gossip column. Celebrity and gossip magazines have been increasingly attracting readers and advertisers for the last five years, according to figures from the Publishers Information Bureau. Running a gossip magazine as a tabloid insert has failed for a local competitor of The Post, The Daily News, which introduced 25 Hours, a glossy Sunday magazine insert, in October 2004 and dropped it in 2005. www.iht.com /articles/2006/04/20/business/pagesix.php   (856 words)

HomeMaking: Gossip Guru   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-25) Each week, when the new magazines come in, instead of sending back the old ones, they rip off the covers and send them back to the magazine companies for credit. Most of the pictures in these magazines are of female celebrities who get all dressed up to pose on red carpets outside of awards shows, which seem to happen at least once a week. If the magazines like a celebrity, they give them a second to suck in their guts and stand sideways so they look skinnier before snapping the picture. www.post-gazette.com /pg/06119/686013-30.stm   (803 words)

Made in Brazil: Magazines This week gossip magazine Quem features an interview with soap hottie Cauã Reymond about his teenage years, getting harassed by the gay media (he doesn't mention me though), and his current affair with Lise Grendene.

Out magazine got a much deserved makeover this month by new editor-in-chief Aaron Hicklin, but as soon as I saw the cover all I could think about was the current issue of V Man, which is standing right on top of my desk. madeinbrazil.typepad.com /madeinbrazil/magazines/index.html   (3785 words)

Monitor on Psychology - Bonding over others' business Likewise, the pleasure that people derive from gossip can create a tendency to "dish dirt"—even when the subject matter doesn't affect our lives, such as with celebrity gossip, or when divulging information could be more risky, such as at work, says DeBacker. He suggests that gossip is the human version of social grooming—a behavior common among other social primates in which one ape or monkey strokes the fur and picks fleas and ticks from the coat of another ape or monkey to strengthen group ties. Meanwhile, gossiping about higher-status people—whether that person is a boss or celebrity—can help us obtain information that will help us compete with those of higher status while also denigrating them. www.apa.org /monitor/apr06/bonding.html   (1334 words)

Waiting Room Magazines There were plenty of people who disagreed with what the magazines had to say, and I had interesting discussions with many of them, but there was no-one who claimed they shouldn't be there. As before, I brought in my magazines when I was done reading them, especially when my department (among others) was begging for any magazine to put in the waiting room. This is in contrast to the "women's" and "men's" magazines, that might as well be labeled soft porn magazines. surge.ods.org /bought/waiting_room_magazines.htm   (635 words)

Genomics Analogy Model for Educators The useless gossip magazines in our library are analogous to what is commonly called "junk DNA". Since the gossip magazines, have very little (or no) value, they are not making the encyclopedias, dictionaries, and reference books more valuable to the readers.

Positive Alternative to Celebrity Gossip? | Progressive U I have to admit that I both deplore celebrity gossip being cast as "news," and the stalker-ish mentality that enjoys peering into the lives of others, yet I read "The Superficial" (probably one of the sleaziest online gossip pages) almost daily.

Which gossip magazine is the best? - By YiLing Chen-Josephson - Slate Magazine Superficiality, envy, cattiness, schadenfreude, mockery, and melodrama: I normally try hard to deplore them all—except when I'm buying a celebrity gossip magazine, in which case they are just the ticket. Between tabloids and glossies, there are seven weekly gossip magazines from which to choose my opiate. A welcome byproduct of the testing was that I finally exhausted my seemingly limitless ability to wring enjoyment, diversion, and procrastination from the lives of the stars and am looking forward to reading something without pictures and exclamation points, preferably a dry philosophical treatise. www.slate.com /id/2099362   (2051 words)
