Journalism I've taken to reading 'Rolling Stone' magazine each week (or whenever it turns up in the UK). Yes it's because it was featured in 'Almost Famous'. But I'm a decerning reader and wouldn't keep buying if it wasn't actually any good. It's a very different animal now, but I really like the writing in general and it's less up itself than Q magazine. I've never heard of many of the bands listed and there has been a tendency lately to cheapen the cover spot by featuring half naked pop princess and teen actress (not that I'm complaining too much). The latest issue ditched most of its musical coverage in favour of a special about the 9.11 tragedy, understandable as the magazine is published a few blocks away from ground zero. They've hypertext much of the thing here.
