THE CHANGING FACE OF YOUTH MEDIA
What do young people in Britain read nowadays? Ten years ago, teen magazines were really popular. But now, lots of young people have turned to digital media. So, what are the advantages and disadvantages of each?
Magazines
Sugar and Bliss have been Britain’s most popular teen magazines for the last few years. These are girls’ magazines with articles about boys and fashion, and interviews with famous people. They also have problem pages, horoscopes and competitions. The music magazine Top of the Pops is also popular, and there are several football magazines like Match. Celebrity gossip magazines like Heat and OK! have also been popular since the late 1990s.
Advantages magazines anywhere.
You often get free posters.
Disadvantages
Printed magazines are not free.
They often only come out once a month.
Online Magazines
Now, most magazines have set up websites too. A lot of young people have stopped buying magazines -they just read them online. Some famous magazines have disappeared altogether. Just 17 closed a few years ago, and the music magazine Smash Hits closed in 2006, after 28 years. Last year there was an experiment to produce a completely digital magazine called Jellyfish, but it didn’t work. Maybe people will always prefer real magazines?
