A dismissive American slang term for a cheaply produced, low-quality magazine — the kind printed on thin paper with questionable editing and supermarket-checkout vibes. Ragazine implies something thrown together more for profit than purpose. It sits somewhere between affectionate irony and genuine shade, perfect for describing a tabloid or a free local publication stuffed with ads.

He skimmed through a ragazine in the waiting room, mildly entertained by the celebrity gossip.
Origin: Portmanteau of 'rag' (British slang for a low-quality newspaper) and 'magazine'. Editorial expansion authored on Slangora (model-assisted, hedged).
