Summary: Superb Analysis and Reporting
Comment: This is not a "leftist" magazine. It rarely takes the vindictive tone of other notorious magazines out there. This magazine is for those who care about Washington and the implementation of policies. It is short, concise, and indepth (yes, I am making sense). Any readers, I am sure, will have the advantage over a reader of The Nation, and probably TNR. Because this magazine focuses on solutions-based remedies, it is sometimes to the right, sometimes to the left (albeit, usually), and always sensical, never hostile.
They will occasionally take on sacred cows of Washington. They are fearless and intelligent.
Get this, but understand that this is mostly educational in nature.

Summary: Nice Liberal magazine
Comment: Another liberal monthly. I don't think this magazine will be around in the next five years due to the internet. The writing isn't that insightful to survive as a mail-order magazine.

Summary: A fine investigative political journal
Comment: Among the writers the 'Washington Monthly' features are: Michael Kinsley, Jonathan Alter, Gregg Easterbrook, Timothy Noah, Taylor Branch, Mickey Kaus, Katherine Boo, James Bennet, Walter Shapiro, David Ignatius, Suzannah Lessard, and Jason DeParle.
The journal advertises itself as one that centers on political affairs, media. It prides itself on its getting stories no one else has.
I have read outstanding pieces in this journal, most recently Jacob Heilbrun's analysis of Jeffrey Hart's lament about the turn the Conservatives in the United States have taken toward Evangelical religion, government intrusion in moral issues.
