This is why I refuse to buy any magazines and tend to go to chat boards instead for my hunting, fishing, and cycling information and questions.

Magazines get a lot of their money from advertisers and not from readers. They make more in advertising dollars than they do from magazine sales. So, when one of their adverisers wants them to do a review of one of their products, do you think the magazine is going to trash that product if it sucks? Nope, because they don't want to lose those advertisers.

Magazines are just a waste of money now that we have the Internet and the worldwide web. You can do tons of your own research without having to depend on biased authors. You can also look at products at the manufacturer's website instead of in the magazines.
