CONGRATULATIONS
Reason made the Chicago Tribune's list of The 50 Best Magazines, coming in at number 21 (ten places above Harper's):
Dubbed a monthly for libertarians ("free minds and free markets"), it's not surprising that Reason has a small list of subscribers. But this magazine does everything well: culture, politics, religion, philosophy, and while other mags redesign to simplify and commercialize, Reason's redesign actually made it better.
More significant, I think, is how the surging importance of Internet publishing has finally gotten Reason into the "evoked set" of political journals. You no longer have to be on TV to count. You can be an active participant in the conversation led by blogs and websites. Congratulations to everyone involved.
