I remember 20 years ago when it was a pleasure to read.

Same. I actually SUBSCRIBED to it back then. Now it is a sad rag, along with "The New Yorker".

I Know! I used to read them both. Now, it’s not even fit for housebreaking the puppy!

My Dad bought me a subscription to, ‘The Week’ for Christmas. It’s pretty much down the middle, but at least I don’t need to barf every time I read it, LOL!

The Hirschfeld cartoons in the New Yorker plus all the dry cartoons

The best part

I think Hitschfield put the words Nina in all his painting for his daughter Nina

I used to read NYT foreign news too when I lived there in 80s

So much detail about stories few paid attention to

Folks here argue with me but I think the media is as bad as ever in my 59 years

I ditched The Atlantic after the tragic death of Michael Kelly, who breathed life (and intelligence) into the magazine during his far too brief tenure.

I still receive & peruse the New Yorker just to watch 'em bleed.
