Newsman Magazine

Newsman Magazine is a magazine distributed for the students of  Newman, Birmingham University. The title of the magazine "Newsman" is supposed to go with the name of the university, "Newman". Funny.

The magazine is a informal magazine, as you can see from the cover below, which I've reviewed.

The magazine tries to keep it "fresh" using informal words and phrases like "drops in". Whether or not this will fair well with the young adult crowd at Newman University is debatable.

The whole theme of the paper is looking ahead. Stories such as video games could reduce child obesity and finances will interest people thinking about decisions to be made in the future, which would suit a university crowd quite nicely.

The layout of the magazine is a formal layout, with pictures and text scattered on the front cover with images  mainly on the left and text mainly on the right. Different fonts and text styles are used with the texts to try and more the cover more appealing for Uni Students. In all honesty it still looks dull.
