    many magazines have a standard size of 8.375 x 10.875".

    also - when you pay for a half-page, you are almost never going to get a full bleed area. Many magazines still run the folios beneath ads and i would expect a .125" margin or greater around the page AND between the other ads or text.

    Newspaper have no set standard and are wildly different for each and every one.

    so no... half page is not 5.5 x 8.5"

    you should get a better answer from your rep. They (whatever they may be) should have a diagram of how ads are placed and the exact sizes you need to submit.
