Ms. Magazine

Ms. Magazine is a prominent feminist publication that has played a significant role in women's rights and journalism since its launch in 1972 by Gloria Steinem, Patricia Carbine, and others. It was the first nationally circulated women's magazine to bring feminist issues into the mainstream. The magazine addresses contemporary women's concerns, covering national and international news relevant to women, as well as featuring women's history, stories, and poetry. The publication focuses on in-depth coverage of social, political, and legislative news related to women's issues. It has evolved from a monthly to a bimonthly and then a quarterly format, relaunching in 1991 as an advertisement-free bimonthly to emphasize unbiased content. Ms. Magazine serves a diverse readership interested in feminist issues and social justice, reflecting a commitment to broadening the women's movement and engaging with contemporary concerns.
