About Rolling Stone Magazine

Founded in 1967, Rolling Stone magazine has been around for a long time. It's been a part of American popular culture and has evolved through the years, changing its format to reflect changing times. Initially, the magazine was focused more on radical politics and hippie culture. Later it evolved to appeal to younger readers after the hippies of the sixties grew older.

Rolling Stone is a magazine devoted to music, politics, and popular culture and is published every two weeks. Rolling Stone was founded in San Francisco in 1967 by its current editor and publisher Jann Wenner and music critic Ralph J. Gleason.

The magazine was named after the 1948 Muddy Waters song of the same name. The magazine became well known for its political coverage in the 1970s, due to the famous and controversial writing of journalist Hunter S. Thompson. Rolling Stone magazine then changed its format in the 1990s to appeal to younger readers, often focusing on young television or film actors and pop music. In recent years, the magazine has resumed its traditional mix of content, including in-depth political stories, and has seen its circulation increase.
