Teen magazines are those magazines created for teen readers. In the United Kingdom, this category of magazines began in the nineteen sixties. The first of its kind was called Fleet way's. The magazine aimed at meeting the needs of adolescents and the youth. Thereafter, a number of magazines began entering the market with some focusing on specific market segments. However, much has changed over the past few decades in the UK market sector. The essay seeks to analyse the social, economic and regulatory issues surrounding the teenage magazine within the United Kingdom and possible threats and opportunities. (Market research.com, 2007)
