2. How might audiences interpret the same magazines very differently and how might these differences reflect both social and individual differences?

No this is not a fair representation of Women or Ethnic Minorities. Although it's target audience is men, the lack of especially Ethnic Minorities is not fair since all men should be included. There seems to be certain pages dedicated for women and ethnic minorities.

A woman buying the magazine and who enjoys rock would feel offended that there are no women in the magazine since they would be offended by having no women role models for their favourite music type. They would also like the magazine and not understand why it isn't targeted to women. Black older men who where to pick it p would feel excluded because the magazine is predominately white. The magazine is expensive as well as the people in the magazine whites why it is targeted for rich people. Lower class would not be able to buy this so would feel excluded.

There is not a range of articles, most are just men and they only have few women. They also have few ethnic minorities. They have used enticing work like modal verbs and emotive language to hook the reader inland make them buy the products being advertised.
