As you’ve probably heard, Newsweek magazine is going to all digital, publishing their very last print edition on December 31, 2012. We’re used to reading the obituaries of print magazines, and fielding questions about the future of print. Here are three reasons why you’ll be able to read Bitch in the bathtub or on the beach, tear out the illustrations and infographics, and file on bookshelf or pass along to friends for many years to come. And you can subscribe, renew or give a gift subscription today at a 20% discount!

Keep Bitch in Print: A Special Message to Male Bitch Supporters!

Bitch HQ post by Brian Frank on July 29, 2011 - 8:35am; tagged bitch magazine, Bitch Media, Keep Bitch in Print, men, subscribe, support.

Today I’m calling on other male-identified Bitch supporters to do their part. Bitch, like feminism in general, is not and cannot just be for women.

Let’s face it—men are underrepresented in their support for the feminist movement. A lot of men believe that feminism is just for women, or at least that they don’t have a constructive role to play. I’m here to tell you that's a bunch of hooey, and to thank all the men out there who speak up about sexism's impacts.

I’m asking every guy reading this today to put your money where your mouth is. If you support keeping one of the strongest, wittiest and most consistent voices in feminist media in print now is the time to show it.

The next issue of Bitch magazine—the Reverb issue—is on its way to mailboxes and newsstands! We've uploaded several articles for you to read online, including a look at women in the contemporary Atheist movement ("The Unbelievers: New Atheism and the Old Boys' Club" by Victoria Bekiempis), an interview with the woman behind the sci-fi short everyone is talking about ("The Africa That I Know: a Q&A with Pumzi Director Wanuri Kahiu" by Samantha Burton), a critical look at the upsurge in booze-soaked anthems ("Party Out of Bounds: Booze, the Pleasure Principle, and Party-Girl Pop" by Gabrielle Moss), and the epic weirdness of Epic Meal Time's objectification ("Pork Underbelly" by Jessica Critcher).

But there's even more that makes the Reverb issue absolutely fabulous—it's Bitch magazine's 15-year anniversary, and we've printed three different, limited-edition covers, one of which will be landing in your mailbox! Check all three covers out here!

Declare Your Independence: Why Subscribing is Better than Buying at the Newsstand

Bitch HQ post by Sara Stroo on July 8, 2010 - 2:25pm; tagged bitch magazine, Declare your independence, newsstand evils.

We’ve mentioned before how Bitch Media, a nonprofit organization, nets only seven cents on each magazine bought at the newsstand. That number is no exaggeration. After we pay to print the issue, ship boxes of it out to wholesalers, pay brokerage fees, and then, finally, pay AGAIN to ship the issues that don’t sell on the newsstand back to their final destination of death by recycler or waste incinerator—well, those costs add up

Declare Your Independence: Bitch, The Magazine

Bitch HQ post by Kelsey Wallace on July 1, 2010 - 12:31pm; tagged bitch magazine, Declare your independence, independent media, subscribe, support.


As many of you Internet fans know, I’m the web editor here at Bitch Media, which means I concern myself mainly with what goes on in this series of tubes we’re working in right now. However, today I’d like to talk about Bitch: Feminist Response to Pop Culture, the best print magazine in the whole world. (OK, I’m biased, but it is seriously awesome.) And now you can get a subscription or renew your existing subscription to the magazine for the limited-time price of $19.96!

Read My Bitch: A new podcast by Bitch Media

Audio post by Kjerstin Johnson on April 8, 2010 - 12:29pm; tagged bitch magazine, Harriet the Spy, YA fiction.

Read My Bitch is a brand-new audio segment that features Bitch Magazine readers and subscribers sharing one of their favorite articles from the archives by reading it aloud and discussing it afterwards. For our first episode, Kristin reads aloud "Harriet and Claudia, where have you gone? Notes on the gender divide in children's literature," by Monica T. Nolan, which was printed in Issue 15, Winter 2002. Kristin reads aloud a sizable excerpt from the piece, and, being in the publishing industry herself, discusses how she relates both personally and professionally to the article, which covers how independent, young female protagonists are unfortunately few and far between. You can subscribe to Read My Bitch on our iTunes channel, along with other Bitch audio programs.
