Since this wing of the Lounge has wonderfully opinionated people of all sorts, I thought I'd ask for some quick impressions on some popular magazines, to kind of work out where they sit on the political map (here).

If you have a moment, please post your view on any of the following magazines. Gut reactions are perfectly ok, I'm not looking for analysis, just a ballpark feel.

• Foreign Policy
• Foreign Affairs
• The Economist
• International Herald Tribune
• Time
• Newsweek


TIA,

J

• Foreign Policy - never read it
• Foreign Affairs - never read it
• The Economist - source of all that is good and true
• International Herald Tribune - Maureen Dowd = milf hottie
• Time - untimely
• Newsweek - colorful bathroom tissue

the only magazine I ever read is The Economist mainly because it presents everything in a world perspective in a VERY indepth fashion... Time & Newsweek are trash tailored to morons...about the same as supermarket tabloids such as The Star and as The Enquirer in their depth and marketing audience.

The International Herald Tribune is a joke.
