Entertainment Magazine
Publisher
The YAP teen newspaper evolved into the Tucson Teen in the early 1980s and then into the Entertainment Magazine in the mid-1980s.
"My life long experience from junior
high school editor to newspaper publisher has made it possible to now
enjoy the best of both worlds- publishing without paper."
Before started in newspaper publishing
in 1977, Zucker joined the staff of the Mountain Newsreal, one of the
first alternative newspapers in Arizona. When Jonathan L decided to
close the publication in 1985, he allowed content from Newsreal to be
featured in Newsreal Classics.

Being on the Internet-cusp in the
early 1990s, Robert Zucker launched and managed both journalism
departments web sites. Zucker was a freelance reporter for the Tucson Citizen's Tucson Business Edge and consultant for other publishers and companies in Tucson and Phoenix, Arizona.
In January 1995
, Entertainment Magazine morphed into Entertainment Magazine On Line (EMOL.org). EMOL.org was one of the first newspapers in Arizona to go online.
