Subject:  related material about READER'S DIGEST and TIME



 I am now doing some studies in the comparison of
linguistic features of READER'S DIGEST and TIME.  Since I am not in
the US, I have no access to much material.I wonder if you can tell me
how to get the related materials such as the circulation and
readership of the two magazines.  And I will also do quantitative
analysis of the stylistic features of the articles adapted by READER'S
DIGEST from TIME. Could you give me some suggestions?  I'll post a
summary if the responses merit it.

Hi

   Does anyone know of a reliable software on measuring ambiguity within a
particular text, especially semantic ambiguity?
