The first genrel intrest magazine is thought to be the gentalmens intrest magazine, which was first puplished in 1731. The editor of the magazine was Edward cave was the first person to use the term 'magazine'.
There is many companys out there which create mazines for everyones intrest. Some of the more popular ones are

Men's magazines
Music magazines
Sports magazines
Teen magazines
Women's magazines

With magazines including, Glamour, Good Housekeeping, Mens Health, Top Gear, NME, Kerrang and Match of the day. They have to make a whole range of magazines because everyone is different and likes to read different magazines about the subject of there choice.
You need to have a good knolage of the subject the magazine is putting across to the customers.

I think that the magazine industy is improving everyday bring out different magazines for different peoples intrest. This is because people are enjoying reading them and going back each week to buy the next one.

In the 20th centry the radio has become more popular, and with this there is more radio stations being broadcast throught out the United Kingdom. This is a good way of getting people to hear your songs and then if they like them then they can go out and buy them. The most popular radio station is radio 2 with 13.5million listerners closely followed by radio 1 with 10.8million listerns, this is because they are based in London and the population in London is very large, and also the surrounding areas of the UK can tune in aswell so they can get millions of people to listen to there Radio Station each day.
All of the Radio producers are very cleaver and many went to University first to get higher qualification. You would need to know how all the tecnolagy works and need a good understanding of what people want to listen to.
I think that the radio was one of the best inventions ever made, because you can listen to whats happerning whereever you are, like in the car, at home or on the train, you might not get the station that you want to listen to in most places but there are other channels out there which do the same sort of music.
