Pros: Excellent photography, interesting in-depth features, fashion, entertainment and political gossip, great covers Cons: Magazine's outlook, expensive, too many high-priced ads, silly fashions, too little about the arts
Talk is a two-year old magazine that's slick, trendy and gossipy. The 216-page magazine covers what's hot, new and exciting in the world of fashion, entertainment and politics. Shorter articles cover books, art, movies, and music. Many sections are...
Pros: Lengthy feature articles, nice layout Cons: Pretentious fodder, as snooty as it wants to be
This review is the third He Said, She Said magazine write-off between myself and Lambira. In previous write-offs, we’ve dissected JaneandDetails, as well as Stuff. Read her review for another...
Pros: A general-interest magazine that is generally interesting. Cons: They are mostly talking to themselves.
This installment of He Said, She Said finds mgreber and I taking a break from gender politics to find something that is ostensibly appealing to both sexes. Since it was my turn to pick, I wandered past the newsstand and was shocked when I spotted...
Pros: Some interesting articles Cons: Too much celebrity gossip
Normally I shun any kind of celebrity gossip magazine and news magazine. This magazine combines both types together, so isn't quite as obnoxious as the two separate types. I picked a couple copies of this up recently out of curiosity because I had not...
Pros: fine writing, great photography Cons: unclear purpose, broken articles, inordinate amount of ads
There seems to be a deluge of new magazines hitting the stands now a days, like there just aren't enough to go around. As I was going through our lounge area of work the other day, I was stopped in my tracks by a picture of an adorable Tom Cruise...
Pros: None: the stock won't even serve in the fireplace Cons: Maybe Gutenberg should have given up
Tina Brown (and where is the INS when you need them?), the appalling 'literary cockney' who drove the final stake through the heart of the magazine that once gloried in Benchley, White, Thurber, Arno, and Harold Ross, has now embarked upon a new...
Pros: Great Articles and Enticing Photography Cons: So many good articles, it's hard to find the time to read them all!
Recently I responded to an online political poll. The award for doing so, was a year's subscription to 3 magazines. One of my choices was a new magazine I hadn't heard of before. Reading the description of Talk intrigued me enough to try it out, and...
Pros: Diverse, well-written Cons: Too varied, tries hard to educate
What can I say about Talk magazine?
I open the December 1999/January 2000 issue and find that a large portion of the magazine is dedicated to advertisements. But there are not as many ads in this magazine as say GQ, Vogue or other fashion...
This is not the type of magazine that I normally prefer to read but, one of the many point sites I do was offering points if you ordered a Free Trial of this magazine. I like points and I like Free so I clicked the little button and shortly after the...
Pros: First issue was good. Cons: Lots of ads and a bunch of celebrity garbage.
The third issue of Talk has a dozen pages of advertisements before you even get to the the table of contents, which, by the way, is extremely underwhelming. After seeing this, I cancelled my Talk subscription.
The first issue had an excellent (and...
Pros: Diversified, Interesting, Stimulating articles Cons: flipping 38 pages to continue the article
While waiting for my wife at the doctor's office, I was actually surprised to find articles that were interesting and stimulating in this magazine. Some of the articles in the December 2000/January 2001 issue are diverse, ranging from "Big Getting...
Pros: Martin Amis and Paul Theroux Cons: Tina Brown
Ever really want a member of the opposite sex, then get to know their shallow, irritating side? Well, Talk needs to be dumped, no matter how shiny it may be.
The magazine looks striking, black, white, and red. And has so much promise, with...
Pros: none Cons: bad articles, poor photography, bad delivery record
I admit it, I was sucked into the whole frenzy of the first issue with the Hillary Clinton interview, and ordered a year's subscription for $12. I have two major complaints about Talk.
1. The subsequent articles in the magazine were...
Pros: Occassionally well-written articles Cons: entirely too many advertisements, poor layout, poor overall quality
Now that the furor over Hillary's inane attempt at amateur psychoanalysis in the premiere issue has faded into the past, we have a chance to review Tina Browns' _Talk_ on a wider scale. Frankly, this is an appalling magazine, despite its occassional...
Pros: celeb interviews Cons: Boring format, text dense, ads hidden in the text
Talk is a new magazine that concentrates on long articles with people who have interesting things to say. Politicos, celebrities, people in the news. There are interviews and articles on popular culture, politics, medicine, technology, fashion, the...
