I obviously love all things literary. As an aspiring journalist, however, magazine and newspaper publications will always hold a special place in my heart. While I can't say I read every newspaper and magazine cover to cover every day, I do try to keep up as best I can. Good reading makes for great writing, especially when it comes to newspaper-style prose which is different from "normal" prose. In fact, I often find that newspaper-style writing can be helpful beyond just in the newsroom- when writing essays, I often use news-paper style in the introduction, as important information is at the forefront, luring a reader in. Anyway, reading the publications listed below will keep you informed and keep your writing top notch- I hope consider picking up one of the following:
- Newspaper: The New York Times
- Newspaper: The Wall Street Journal
- Magazine: The New Yorker
- Magazine: The Atlantic
- Magazine: Time
- Magazine: National Geographic
- Magazine: The Economist
- Magazine: Vogue
- Magazine: Harper's Bazaar
- Magazine: Vanity Fair
Happy reading!
