WOMEN’S JOURNAL 2012



WOMEN’S JOURNAL 2012:  STILL AT ITS BEST

WOMEN’S JOURNAL first came out on April 7, 1973, on a weekly basis, newsprint, at a cost of seventy-five centavos per issue. At the center of its work is its involvement in setting up a vehicle to represent and institutionalize la femme as prime mover of progress. Given the class consciousness of the era, WJ has become a sort of national propagandist for the female species.
Thirty-nine years later, WOMEN’S JOURNAL  now comes out with bright and attractive covers, jazzy layouts and catchy visuals, making it a monthly women’s  magazine,  all on coated pages, to watch out for and keep.
We’ve come a long, long way since then, and thanks to you, our loyal, dear, dear special friends, and readers.
            Significantly, WJ has broadened the definition of magazine publication to include every tiny part of the social fabric---medicine, law, politics, art, science, food, home furnishings, cosmetology, old styles, new fads, etc.---as something newsworthy. On this score, WJ has become as much an educator as a print medium.
