description Reiman Publications represent a singular model—80% of content is submitted by readers and the magazines are ad-free. This study places the magazines within the broader American cultural landscape, showing how the role of suburban middle-class white women is tied to traditional values, religion, and a valorization of country taste as “authentic” expression. Through depth interviews, close textual reading, and narrative and rhetorical analysis, the study demonstrates how an imagined community is constructed, depicts readers' shared social space, and suggests how the magazines frame and build core values, binding readers into a community by voicing a shared lifestyle and self-image.
