"Magazines" in-class discussion- 

Before hearing Mr Miller's class discussion, I never really realized how important magazines were...how they were the next big invention after newspapers.  Magazines had something for everyone, which made them a huge seller.  Everyone in the family wanted to read part of it.  Also magazines had some major innovations like investigative and photo journalism. Unlike newspapers, magazines' pages were made of way better paper, which made the pictures clearer. Photographers could finally display their work in front of millions. Also, investigative journalism thrived which shined a light on corruption. Unlike newspapers that came out everyday, magazines came out less often which gave journalists more time to write their stories.  I found the topic of magazines to be fascinating.
