OTHER FORMS OF PRINT MEDIA



Filmfare, Champak, Grihasobha, Chandamama, India Today, The Week, Outlook . Are these names familiar to you ? They are also part of the print media. But they are not newspapers. They are called magazines. Can you tell the difference between newspapers and magazines ? Like newspapers, magazines and weeklies are other forms of print media. They are published at regular intervals. How do you differentiate beween them? A weekly is published once a week and a monthly once a month. A fortnightly is published once in two weeks.
A bi-weekly is published twice every week. A tri-monthly is one which is published every three months. These are also known as quarterlies. Then there are certain publications that come out only once a year which are called annuals.
“India Today” is a weekly, while “Champak” is a fortnightly. “Grihasobha” and “Vanitha” are monthlies.
