Summary/Abstract: The paper is grounded in a wide research of new journalistic genres in current weeklies. Examining a sample of 102 copies of four Slovak weeklies (.týždeň, Plus 7 dní, Život, Slovenka) the author defined some new genres and new findings about some traditional ones. Here she presents the current reader´s responses in detail: working with five genre criterions (topic, function, form, composition, language) and presenting its characteristics (stylistic value, expertness, subjectivity, personal stories, superficial reflections, emotiveness). Separately she points out the elements of internet discussions in these texts and the tendency to use this space for corrections and apologies.
