I agree Bitt however I noticed over the years an inverse relationship between the circulation numbers and the bias or tilt of these magazines. It is economic imperative that pushes them to the left on the premise that those who will stay with them through thick and thin are those whose idiological bent is well served. Has they not beeen part of a huge muti-media conglomerate, I believe they would have all but dissapeared given the fundamental changes that occurred in the world of print media over the last ten of fifteen years.
