Predominant contributor Joe Deeney is our constructor on this 365th daytime of 2022. Joe ushers come out of the closet the twelvemonth with a clever quintet of Magazine names - some popular and comfortably-known; a couple not so much - that are set up in somewhat plebeian phrases.
I (8-Across: Focus[ed] on attractive a contest?) STARE[D] at the dummy gridiron for quite awhile ahead getting a foothold, but I didn't betray (even though I had whol of the answers). I FIR with several w/o's As will be explained in the recap below. Here then are the five themer's:
17-Crosswise. Cartridge clip article?: TIME Firearm.
TIMEcartridge holder has been around forever (actually, since March 3, 1923), and annually honors their "Person of the Year". The 2022 recipient is Elon Musk.

Dissimilar TIME and PEOPLE (which are weekly's), MONEY is published monthly. Meter, Inc was its front publisher.
52-Across. Magazine advertising?: CRICKET PITCH. OK, now it gets a morsel tricky . . . did Joe make the States a curve ball OR is Moe over-thinking this i?

48. WWII mastery: ETO. European Theater of Operations - this abbr. is becoming a bit too "crosswordese" for my liking, as many of the new contemporaries of puzzle solvers are unacquainted with with this term, outside of crosswords.
