Methodology


The data I have collected is 6 editor’s letters in magazines, 3 from girls magazines and 3 from women’s magazines. I made sure of this by searching the best selling magazines on the internet.
I have purchased all of the magazines from supermarkets so I know that the extracts that I take come from very reliable and reputable sources.
I chose to select three of each because it will make a much fairer investigation rather than just picking out one or two.
I decided not to choose magazines based on what I would like, because they could be biased and unfair, so I chose to select the top three women’s and the top three girls magazines.
They are comparable because they are aimed at the same gender. The girls magazines are comparable because they are aimed at the exact same age and the woman’s magazines are too.

The reason i chose editors letters was because they all serve the same purpose and will be the bets to compare as i will have more to write about.

  1. Good. What is your evidence for 'top' magazines and who the audience is - quote your research. Why editor's letters? Try and explain your thinking in-depth.

  2. Also, if you only have one from each magazine, how will you be able to argue that they are representative of 'editors letters in...'?
