Oh. I didn't know Reader's Digest was still in print!
I only read magazines while waiting at the doctor's office or the car dealer while the car is in for service. Sometimes I don't bother even there. Many years ago I discovered that any given magazine will recycle their stories every year or so... same topics rewritten by someone else.
News magazines are out of date before they get printed. I get my news mostly from cable TV. Alternate between 2 channels neither of which is a small animal with a fluffy tail. I get local news from the ladies at the dog park.
Someone up-thread mentioned Consumer Reports. I find the online reviews for various products much more useful.
Until very recently, I subscribed to "Nebraska" magazine and "The New Yorker" magazine. I felt quite irritated about "The New Yorker" coming to my house every week as I had thought I signed up for a digital-only subscription. I read mostly on the internet and I don't need or want the paper accumulation. I have more than twenty news sources bookmarked on my laptop and will look at 10 to 12 of them regularly. Recently, I've downloaded a reader for the Washington Post onto my FireTV so I can look at the news when I have a dog on my lap.
Print magazines are sadly dying. I can't tell you how many postcards I have received that a magazine is digital or no longer being published in any form. I love print magazines.
