Abstract:
|
In the past decade many countries in Asia have changed their public policies on media ownership. Today, “local editions” of global magazines like Vogue, Cosmo and Elle are available in most Asian countries as well as the local, home-grown women’s magazines. Using content analysis, advertisements that have appeared in the two most popular local women’s magazines in Singapore, Her World and Female were compared to the Singapore editions of the two most popular global women’s magazines, Harper’s Bazaar and Elle. This study compared the products being advertised as well as the race, ethnicity and beauty types of models used in local magazine advertising with those in global magazines to understand the types of messages women in Singapore receive. |
