The New Yorker is an American magazine of reportage, commentary, criticism, essays, fiction, cartoons, satire and poetry published by Conde Nast Publications. Starting as a weekly in the mid-1920s, the magazine is now published 47 times per year, with five of these issues covering two-week spans. Although its reviews and events listings often focus on cultural life of New York City, The New Yorker has a wide audience outside of New York and USA. It is well known in its commentaries on popular culture and eccentric Americana; its attention to modern fiction by the inclusion of short stories and literary reviews; its rigorous fact checking and copyediting; its journalism on world politics and social issues; and its famous, single-panel cartoons sprinkled throughout each issue.
The Research Reporter is an organisation of researchers, journalists, media, and communication experts. Our work features stories about research undertaken by universities, government, and private institutions in South Africa with the intention of creating debate on national issues and improving the lives of people, in keeping with our mission statement: ‘Research is the mother of innovation.’ Our research stories are generated by using high-quality processes of collecting and interpreting or translating complex research findings into a language, format and context that non-experts can understand. We have established that researchers in universities, government departments and private institutions are conducting important research on various issues. However, they often only communicate the results to other researchers. We believe it is our duty to move this research on issues of health, law, sciences, humanities, commerce, engineering and the built environment from the laboratories, research journals, policy briefs, dissemination meetings, research reports, and academic conferences into the hands of people and organisations that can put it to practical use to improve the lives of others. The aim of the Research Reporter is to communicate evidence-based information that will empower ordinary citizens to become involved in the debate around critical issues from an informed perspective.
Time to get back to the future! In this special edition from the editors of People, we celebrate the year Marty McFly and Doc Brown turned a DeLorean into a time machine. 1985 was the year of The Breakfast Club and St. Elmo’s Fire, of Princess Diana’s iconic twirl with John Travolta at the White House, and of Live Aid and Farm Aid when the music world came together to do good. On TV we were watching The Golden Girls, Moonlighting (Hello, Bruce Willis!), Dynasty, and Dallas. We look back at Star Tracks and Heart Monitor from 1985 to see what the most memorable celebrities of the day were up to, and who was falling in or out of love, as well as the biggest news of the year. This 96-page photo-filled issue also includes People’s Ultimate Pop Culture Quiz: How well do you remember 1985?
