Decided to subscribe to The Atlantic. There’s a certain kind of story that I miss from the NYT and WaPo after cancelling both those subscriptions last year. I still don’t want to obsess with the news, but when I dip my toes in, I want the coverage to be good.
Brad Barrish not that you need my validation, but I think that’s a sound decision. I did the same a few years back and I continue to be happy with the decision.
Vincent Van Dinsky @manton You just have to pour all their content through a Britta filter because it's 75% crap, and 25% good reporting.
Patrick Berry @manton I subscribed this week as well. Their coverage of Whisky Leaks certainly played a large role. This along with The Onion and I'm all set 🤣
Manton Reece @bradbarrish Cool, glad it’s worked for you. I have a good feeling and respect how they’ve handled this Signal text fallout.
Mark Stoneman There is some good reporting and excellent editing, but like with any other publication, you gotta keep your thinking cap on when reading it. Pedigree isn’t a good enough filter these days, if it ever was.
Eric Bowers @manton I'm already paying via Apple News+, but I'm thinking of subscribing directly as well. Always loved their writing.
