1. Rhetorical context- I am going to describe how the magazine intrigues my audience and how it represents all aspects of music and entertainment. I explain the values of my audience and their beliefs.
Structural Context- I think that I’m going to write a paragraph on the four point that as brought up as essential in your liking of the magazine.
The source of the information is the magazine itself, I will be reading an issue ad describing and rating the magazine. I will try to explain all current things of magazine print and of the pass.
There is more than enough information I the magazine and through online sources.
2. Rolling stone magazine is a magazine that is written about pop culture and the things that occur in the present time. I really like reading about music and entertainment, anyone who is into these things as well will really like this magazine.
3. The magazine represents different types of music so I will give example from the magazine on how they represent the different types of represented in the article. I will use another example to explain how they show global warming and their liberal point of view. I will then explain that the advertisements represent and how they show what pop culture is.
4. Counter argue would be that they don’t include country music and that they only cover more popular music. But I’m not targeting that audience so that should not be a problem in my review.

I think that the fact that you have to be into pop culture and all different types of music is essential in being my target audience. An example of this is in two articles within the magazine one on Alicia Keys and the other Lady Gaga also has an article. These two artists are too different type of performers and are two different types of musicians yet they both appear in this magazine. Another, important thing to look upon is the liberal aspect and beliefs. For example there is an article on global warming. The article has a very liberal view on the subject. Another example of something that I wanted to show was how the advertisement reflects things that represent pop culture. They show I phones and other technology and the clothing is all expensive and worn by celebrities. The last example is how much info is brought up in the magazine. They discuss a variety of topics as shown in the magazine; everything is shown from articles on global warming to articles on Spanish sensation Shakira. The wide variety is what makes the magazine so intriguing and fun to read. It really keeps you updated on the information that isn’t necessarily on the news but is stuff people actually care about.
