Summary: price
Comment: I ordered two subscriptions as Xmas gifts at $48.00 each.
In January I ordered a gift subscription from the publisher on the net and the cost was only $36.00.
That is quite a difference. Of course I will look more carefully in the future when ordering books etc.

Summary: One of the best
Comment: Its a good magazine that doesn't have hysterical or over hyped pieces. While I do not always agree with the conclusions of the writers, the magazine does what Time, Newsweek etc do not do. Make one think. I also applaud them for being honest and having articles taking the currant administration to task for failings and for being honest in challenging conservatives to get their act together. While William Kristol and Fred Barnes are often noted as being the most notable at the magazine I actually like other writers like John Simon, William Doino Jr, Vance Serchuk (who wrote a great review of a book I own The White Man's Burden Why the West's Efforts to Aid the Rest Have Done So Much Ill and So Little Good by William Easterly),John Podhoretz, Gerard Alexander. Now I know as far as subscriptions go the price may seem high. But I suggest you subscribe and then donate the copies to your local library. They will appreciate the gift. I also have to note that I really love the artists who do the covers and that as a subscriber I can also read issues online.

Summary: The Wall- Street Journal in color
Comment: I read part of the 'Weekly Standard' each week online. I do not know if that means I qualify to review the paper as a whole.
I find its articles informative and straightforward. There is a certain economy about the publication. It seems to me sometimes as if it is a kind of 'Wall Street Journal' in color.
I suppose one reason I do not take objection to it in any serious way is that I most often agree with its politics.
When I read its articles I feel I am getting the most for my money in the short time it takes me.
Customer Rating:
Summary: Thoughtful analysis
Comment: The Weekly Standard clearly has a conservatinve "bent." However, it is not the sort that screams, "This is the ONLY way to think about this topic." It is thoughtful commentary, delivered with well crafted writing. I come away from reading an issue thinking that I have been well informed.
