In this week’s Unedited (here if you missed it), I wrote about how dissatisfied I am with the state of media. My at-home newsstand has shrunk down to the NYTimes Magazine and Styles section…and I do like Goop and a few different substacks I subscribe to. You can see my list here.
What do YOU read? Please comment below.
I’ve gotten a shit ton of email from readers of this newsletter wanting to meet IRL/Zoom for out of NYC-ers. I will send out an organizing email for the new year. In the interim, if you’re interested in getting together with other like-minded media girls to plan a coup…or just laugh and connect 🤪please reply to this email and I will put you on the list. I’m kinda excited!
I read SO MUCH. My husband jokes it could be my full time job. Books, magazines, newsletters, you name it. I am significantly older than Atoosa and the readership of this newsletter, so for magazines, my only real constants are InStyle and Real Simple (plus O, sadly missed). I usually get a cheap $5 subscription or two a year, rotating T&C, Vogue, Self/Shape/Health, etc. I also trade magazines with my mother when we see each other, she usually has Bazaar and Vogue. I subscribe to NYT and WaPo online, basically my newsletters link to most of the articles I would want to read, also NY Mag online. Local Sunday paper and my husband gets WSJ so I skim it, Friday Mansion section and weekend sections are great. I subscribe to too many sub stacks, sadly can't pay for all, but do pay for a few. R.Eric Thomas, Anne Helen Peterson, Meg Conley, Virginia Sole-Smith, Roxane Gay, Hunter Harris, just found Amy Odell like a week ago. Also Bitch and Dame. I can't even get into the news ones, lol. Yes, I am often behind on my email, and sometimes just have to delete. But I enjoy the bounty!
The Guardian daily, b/c it is free.
I have been able to maintain my student subscription to WSJ. #Ballinonabudget
I miss subscription to The Economist. Sometimes I will renew if an article is a must read. The same applies to The Atlantic and NYT.
Also, my Media Diet is MAGIC, the more I read the more it shrinks!!
Atoosa! Hail, Brilliant Woman! I'm in!
