Dear DWK, 

In Amazon.com, there is a Magazine section, where you could find the
many Italian newspapers/magazines, among them:

Corriere Della Sera ("Evening Courier") - one of the most popular
Italian dailies. A bit "serious" (non-tabloid) newspaper. You could
receive it 6-days-a-week:
http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/B00006KAC3/ltc-political/102-2761171-3377725

Smilarly, you could get La Stampa
<http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/B00007B1OS/qid%3D1070655403/sr%3D11-1/ref%3Dsr%5F11%5F1/102-2761171-3377725>,
L'Unita <http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/B00007L0Q5/qid%3D1070655427/sr%3D11-1/ref%3Dsr%5F11%5F1/102-2761171-3377725>

Bell Italia - "The National Geographic of Italy" - 12 monthly issues:
http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/B00007J6M4/ltc-political/102-2761171-3377725

GQ has an Italian edition:
http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/B00007MH23/qid%3D1070655900/sr%3D11-1/ref%3Dsr%5F11%5F1/102-2761171-3377725

Magazine Of La Cucina Italiana  - cooking, lifestyle (usually not
interesting for grandfathers, but who knows...) 12 month subscription:
http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/B00009XFML/ref=pd_sbs_mag_3/102-2761171-3377725?v=glance&s=magazines

Finally, if you would like to read begginners' newspaper in Italian: 
Ciao - 1st Level Italian
http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/B00006K8V4/ref=pd_sbs_mag_1/102-2761171-3377725?v=glance&s=magazines

Searching the magazine section might bring about more magazines, but
unfortunately the shop has no engine to search seperately only for
Italian language magazines.

I hope this answers your question. I searched Froogle
<www.froogle.com> for names of magazines, to reach these results.
Please contact me if you need any clarifications on this answer before
you tip/rate it.

This was pretty helpful, but can you find an Italian Newsweek type
Magazine?  Amazon does not post any descriptions.

Thanks
