Yes, there is a magazine called Redneck World. It was started three years ago by Frank Fraser a former stockbroker raised in Cuba. Fraser launched the magazine because he felt there are far too many “snooty” publications out thare that do not cater to a vast audience of rednecks.
People have a misconception of rednecks, he says. I call them the salt of the earth. Its an uphill climb, but Im trying to make rednecks respectable.
He further describes his readers saying, The RWR [Redneck World Redneck] likes fried foods, barbecues, cold beer, sweet tea, thick tasty gravies and wholesome country cooking. He also enjoys outdoor events like hunting, fishing, auto racing, arts & crafts and country fairs.
He’s seeing interest from advertisers in the North as well as the South indicating that Rednecks are not just a Southern thing. Rednecks buy stuff too, says Fraser. Rednecks buy expensive doublewide mobile trailers, they buy ATVs, they buy motorcycles, hunting and fishing equipment. There is a lucrative marketplace out there.
This goes to show there’s a whole world out there once you get past J.Lo and Ben, Britney, fiddy’ cent, Reality TV, and Gawker.
