About The New Yorker

Product Description In 1925, Harold Ross established The New Yorker as a lighthearted, Manhattan-centric magazine—a “fifteen-cent comic paper,” he called it. Today, it is considered by many to be the most influential magazine in the world. The New Yorker stands apart for its commitment to truth and accuracy, for the quality of its prose, and for its insistence on exciting and moving every reader. Amazon.com Review For readers who demand the very best, The New Yorker delivers unparalleled reporting and commentary on politics and foreign affairs, business and technology, popular culture and the arts, along with humor, fiction, poetry, and, of course, cartoons. The creativity, influence, and impact that have characterized The New Yorker since its founding are today amplified far beyond its pages. A subscription keeps readers in the know no matter where they find themselves, whether in the publication’s namesake city or trotting around the globe. The New Yorker’s influence is best summarized by its editor, David Remnick: “Some publications are all about predictability. The New Yorker's predictability resides only in its quality, its attention to accuracy, and the depth of its reporting. Beyond that, it is the most unpredictable of publications. It takes on the big subjects—politics, culture, the natural world—but it does so in ways that are unique. The New Yorker is about the originality of its writers, its artists, and its other contributors, all of whom explore the world and the world of ideas with complete editorial freedom.
