This would be diffficult to duplicate in a diverse area. Not all Southerners think alike but obviously, enough do.
Some Southerners trash both Garden and Gun and Southern Living (and a few other similarly targeted magazines such as Delta) as being “inauthentic.” Some seemingly jealous editors of other regional publications fan the flames. What they seem to mean is that since G&G and Southern Living may not appeal to the carpet-bag retirees, trailer park meth-cookers, liberal granola types, or blacks, their readers are racist neo-Confederates. Thankfully there are, generally speaking, enough traditional, educated, and upper middle class Southerners to form a reliable reader base.
