You never make this your own creation. There is exactly one way to do it. Blame this on me if someone says differently. Being a journalist if I am to mention a magazine or a movie title for example it appears in italics like Amityville Horror. I have never once used anything other than italics to do so.

The way to really find out is write your paper in the library and see a copy of the Chicago Manual Of Style journalists use. It shows how to capatilize, list source documents, and whether names are capped or not of magazines, businesses, churches etc. When in doubt go with how newspapers do it and get that book in your possession.

If you are Canadian the book you need to view is the Canadian Press Style Guide and CP Caps and Spelling. Text books might also show you how to do it.

If I were you I would be crafty and call Time Magazine ask for Editorial and then ask them how it is capped, and whether underlined or not. Major articles and body of work are listed differently.

Send a note to Dangernerd. He has been in radio and would know for sure how it is done. Just a tip.
