not to get all OT but I honestly feel that time/Newsweek/Bloomberg magazines are less harmful than mishpacha. (Hashkafikly)
do you have some specific examples of what you mean?

They have an agenda to liberalize the frum mind and family. To educate us and enlighten us etc etc.
Not to mention that most weeks there are many pages of articles that are sooo inappropriate for the many tweens who read them....
 They thrive on stories of abusive marriages and and parenting, after all they need to provide jaw dropping "drama" or els they cant compete. Just Feh.

I haven't been there recently, but i'm assuming he's referring to the store associates not allowing it.

Its not a regular ATM. Its a "walmart money center" ATM that can be used to load bb.
It can also be done with a cashier.

They had a whole article on Skira Meurechet (or whatever it's called) and they listed all the rabbanim in Israel that are against it, then they proceeded with stories where people asked their rabanim if they should do it, and the rabbanim said they shouldn't. They went ahead and did it anyway, and they were were so happy they did (violate the advice of their rabannim) because of xyz.

That was when it got banned in my house.

They've filed lawsuits in court against rabbanim. It is definitely of the worst publications that can be brought into a jewish home

I didn't mean that it was worthy of the Pulitzer just that usually with these puff pieces, to the people in the know it has little resemblance to reality, however in this case I thought it gave the reader a truthful albeit elementary picture.

Is it just me, or is Mishpacha doing this way more than they used to (ripping off graphics and/or "parodying" various goyishe movies/TV shows/other concepts)?
definitely not just you
