Do you still read magazines and newspapers? Well, it is obvious that you are online, so if ever you are do you check out news to get updated as well or do you guys still read magazines and newspapers? If yes, what are they? Do you subscribe?

I am currently reading People of the Thunder by W. Michael Gear and Kathleen O'Neal Gear. It is the latest in their First North Americans series. I like historical fiction.

yes, I still do like reading magazines and newspapers from time to time.In fact, it acts as my stress buster. When I read, I want to finish it from cover to cover. I dont really subscribe. i just buy those I feel like buying at certain times. My parents buy 3 different newspapers everyday so there's plenty to read at home.

Yes, I still view the paper copy of the newspaper or magazines as well as viewing the online versions. My favorite magazines are Popular Science, Popular Mechanics, PC World, Newsweek, USA Today and Time. Online, I usually view the USA Today website the most.

Good thing you asked... Now I won't keep on forgetting to unsubscribe to a magazine I've been subscribed to for weeks. I imagined, everything I read from that supplement, I was able to read online already. He he he. Talk about waste of money and energy.

Yes, I read both magazines and newspapers. Granted, I do not read as many or as much I did ten years ago or even five years ago. The Internet has really changed that in many ways. Able to get news and information right away. As opposed to it being a bit out of date and bit behind the times. I do not have magazine subscriptions or newspaper subscriptions however. When I do, I just pick them up at the grocery store. The magazine rack has shrunk over the years, needless to say. I remember when it was an entire aisle on one side with magazines as far as the aisle can see. Now its down to about a quarter. Print media is dying because of the Internet, what can I say. Still, I do still read newspapers and magazines.

hi! yes, i still read magazines and newspapers because they are interesting to me and I don't think it is old-fashioned or something like that. I buy magazines every week and read them just for a day or to, because i really like to read some interesting facts about many process of the nature or some new inventions
