Research

      Last but not least, the fourth magazine I chose to analyze was BassMaster. The cover photo is a animated picture of a largemouth bass in the process of eating an artificial topwater lure. The cover gives the titles of two of the articles featured in the magazine and includes what page they are on. In the first part of the magazine, a table of contents, sales and sponsors list, and editors notes are all present. Most ads fishing tools or products that are for sale. The articles have pictures that include the exact lure or gear they are trying to show their audience. The circulation of this magazine is 520,000.  The magazine won prestigious Eddie awards from Folio, an organization that recognizes editorial excellence within the magazine industry. Bassmaster, which serves 3.2 million readers, was the only fishing title winning an Eddie award in any print category.
