 Entertainment Weekly I've been an avid reader of Entertainment Weekly for years now, but has anyone else noticed their articles have a lot more to do with politics and why Trump sucks rather than reporting on entertainment. I unfollowed them on social media and I'm considering not reading their magazine anymore.

Re: Entertainment Weekly Their current main article is about The CW Superheroes.
Way to be a baby.

Re: Entertainment Weekly Yeah i used to buy the magazines and back issues as well but no longer do. On facebook - they have become ridiculously political and anti Trump. I'll turf them if they dont get back to movies, tv, music etc

Re: Entertainment Weekly The entertainment industry as a whole is almost entirely liberal too, so don't know what to tell you.

Re: Entertainment Weekly Indeed. Though i think he meant that they should stay out of politics and just report (mainly) on entertainment subjects which i agree.

Well to be fair they are reporting on entertainment. Usually their anti-Trump stuff does involve celebrities not supporting him. And he is a celebrity. It's mostly just on Facebook. I don't notice much about it in the actual magazine. Entertainment Weekly has been like my Bible for YEARS. I love it. Can't imagine ever not having a subscription. And at least they took the right stance politically.

Re: Entertainment Weekly I buy the magazine when they have something on the cover I want to read about, but I don't buy it automatically anymore like I once did.

Re: Entertainment Weekly Algren wrote: Jmart wrote: Ma...ga...zines? Says the guy that still collects discs. It is funny because i do like to collect books and magazines still where i can but have given up on DVD/bluray a while back. For others, it may be the other way around - while many others prefer everything digital. _________________
