WWW: Two good case studies – you have picked out some really interesting aspects of both magazines. The fact you’ve looked at the impact of cover lines in other copies of Tatler is a very good sign – it’s that in-depth knowledge that will really help you in the exam.

EBI: For both case studies, you are missing Stuart Hall’s reception theory (preferred and oppositional readings). This is a crucial exam theory and it may well appear in a question – even if it doesn’t, a top-level student should be trying to use this theory when analysing media products anyway!

The preferred reading of Tatler would be the creators of would want the magazine to be relatable to people of a richer background. If it's more relatable, it will make the audience want to buy the product as it will interest them more. The oppositional reading is that Tatler does not feature things that apply to other groups, which is understandable because of the target audience -but to an extent. The fact that this magazine is limited to the type of people that can relate to it means that potential customers are lost.
