O'Doherty's Criticisms

O'Doherty criticised rival Irish magazines by suggesting that they had transformed into fashion catalogues to feature the latest fashionable shoe, handbag or eyeshadow. He singled out Glow for particular criticism and suggested that his own magazine was not on the same level as it. O'Doherty suggested U had altered since starting to publish fortnightly, saying that it was far more "tabloidy" and had less substance in its current format. He discuused the similarities with British rivals such as Glamour or Cosmo and said that whilst some of the people featured in Stellar would have previously featured in VIP it would overall be a different publication, more of a "grown-up version of Kiss".

The magazine has since launched its own website which is currently undergoing development.

Famous quotes containing the word criticisms:

    I have no concern with any economic criticisms of the communist system; I cannot enquire into whether the abolition of private property is expedient or advantageous. But I am able to recognize that the psychological premises on which the system is based are an untenable illusion. In abolishing private property we deprive the human love of aggression of one of its instruments ... but we have in no way altered the differences in power and influence which are misused by aggressiveness.
    Sigmund Freud (1856–1939)
