Compare & Contrast Magazine Covers (Another in a Series)

[Frank W. Baker]

The New York Times has a story about how certain celebrities, in this case Dr. Oz, sell more magazines when they appear on the cover. I have used the occasion of this business/media/news story to create another one of my series of compare-and-contrast magazine cover activities.  You'll find a one page sheet with critical thinking questions posed beneath the cover images. (Previously, I have used this activity with teachers using covers featuring Lebron James (NBA) and Jennifer Lawrence (actress from The Hunger Games.)
