Interesting but sad tale. I was a longtime subscriber to the Spectator, but I certainly didn't let my subscription lapse because I thought they went after Clinton too much or were "out of touch" with all the idiots who blindly supported him (and who are now heaving a collective gasp as the vibrations from the WTC explosions shake the scales from their eyes). I only let my subscription lapse when Gilder changed it, and I was disappointed that it would no longer be the sharp-edged conservative magazine that I loved. I wanted more politics, not less. I hope Tyrell & company find another outlet, and soon.

I liked the old Spectator. But I like the new one too.

I'm with you. Although this month has a great article about physics, that's about all I'm interested in. The rest is not why I subscribed to the magazine (and why I shall not resubscribe). And this is from a reader who subscribed since it was "The Alternative", on newsprint about 24" x 16". It's sad, isn't it.

Dittos..I loved the"Old Spectator"edge and irreverence..that combined with some solid conservative writing made it an important part of my life for many years..but they killed what was best..
