One reason why I never buy magazines, I so agree with this sentiment:

There have been a few that have started out with good intentions, then changed to air-brush/air-head like the rest.-

I'm starting my own magazine called "Lard".
Headline . . I've stopped going to the gym 3 years ago and have never felt better.

Ohh I have some good ideas for it:
"I switched from Flora to butter and my hair has never looked better!"

I hardly buy them anymore compared to when I was a teen. They are such a huge influence on today's teens and women though!

And with a generation of children who see the size zero model as ideal, one worries about the effect we are having on them

I think the airhead magazines should stop, I really do. I am dreading when my girls decide they want to be prima-donnas. Fortunately they have quite a few good female role models in the family, so hopefully they won't become size 0 brainless bimbos.
I tend to sub to things like National Geographic, Juno, The Ecologist and those ilk.-

I do buy the local paper every Thursday. But I never buy 'proper' newspapers - what a waste of money! If I want brainwashed / propoganda, I will watch the news.
The headlines on our local paper recently? "Cat rescued from tree by firemen" - I //swear// that is true! Ger was going to take it back down to Glasgow with him, because he didn't think anyone would believe him.-

Our local paper is a free one we get one on thursday and one on Sunday. The Sunday one was full of a councillor acusing the Lib Dem councillor of standing and watching the concentration camps being built!! Needless to say he has had a rap over the knuckles - what makes it was is he is Deputy leader of the council!!
Otherwise both papers are really useless when it comes to any sort of news, lots of adverts and not much else-
