Magazines are a type of publication that get released consistently over the course of a specific time. This can be monthly, weekly, or even daily. Magazines can be either released as print or online digitally. There are several different types of magazines that contain several different types of content. Some magazines can contain news articles, short stories, photographs, advertisements, or all of them. Usually, the magazine brand focuses on a certain topic. There are magazines that are centered around fashion, finances, or news. There are magazines centered around very specific hobbies as well, like fishing, woodworking, or even online gaming.<ref>American Society of Magazine Editors, editor.

These subscriptions are usually monthly but not always. Magazines can also make money through the advertisements that they include in the magazines or through the customer purchasing the magazine. Magazines usually make their money through a combination of advertisements, the purchasing price, and subscriptions that customers ignore up for. Magazines are placed in different categories based on how often the publish, what type of demographic they cater to, what kind of subject the magazine focuses on, and the tone or style of the magazine. When it comes to the topic of a magazine trying to target a specific audience, an example could be how a magazine about women’s fashion is obviously aimed at women. Or how a trade magazine centered around carpentry would be for carpenters or people who have carpentry as a hobby. The cover of the magazine is usually focused on the most important component of the magazine.<ref>''The Best Magazine Design : Photography, Illustration, Infographics & Digital.'' 1st edition, Rockport Publishers, Inc., 2012.</ref>

Book Ban

A book ban is when a book is suppressed by some kind of power due to the material within the book being deemed worthy of censorship. The authorities that have engaged in book banning over the years range from concerned parents to national governments. Book bans are a common tactic by authoritarian dictatorships in an attempt to suppress dissent. Countries that have notably engaged in book bans include the People’s Republic of China, Nazi Germany, the Soviet Union, and the United States of America.<ref>Pérez, Ashley Hope, et al. ''Banned Together : Our Fight for Readers’ Rights''. First edition., Holiday House, 2025.</ref>

== Objectives ==
Reasons that are often used to censure books include age appropriateness, sexual content, and for religious reasons. For example, ''the Satanic Verses'' by Salman Rushdie was banned by the Supreme Leader of Iran and the controversy surrounding the book led to many assassination attempts against Rushdie. In several cases, the writers of these books have faced overly extreme prison sentences, exile from their home countries, and even execution.

== Current ==
In the United States specifically, many accusations have been made against the government that they use book banning to target literature with LGBTQ characters, or that feature themes about race, gender, or sexuality. In recent years, local communities of concerned parents have been given support by politically conservative organizations that focus on censoring certain subjects. Legal and legislative routes to book banning have become much more common recently as well, while in the past the banning usually came from debates in local communities. Journalists, librarians, teachers, and writers have come together to challenge these censorships, arguing they infringe on free speech.<ref>Coleman, James Joshua, and Petra Lange. “A Two-Year Timeline to Anti-LGBTQ+ Book Bans in America’s Heartland.” ''English Journal'' [Urbana], High school edition, vol. 113, no. 6, July 2024, pp. 25–32, <nowiki>https://doi.org/10.58680/ej2024113625</nowiki>.</ref>
