Does anyone know what the sans serif on Entertainment Weeklys cover is?

It reminds me of Prelo , but that's not it.

It's Retina Display, which H&FJ designed for the Wall Street Journal redesign a few years ago, IIRC. Wired and a few newspapers redesigned by Mario Garcia have used it as well.

I learned this by downloading a PDF of their media kit, which uses some of the same fonts.
