The First Amendment Is under Assault
Dear Friend, Jack Fowler has been badgering me to write a fundraising appeal around our planned re-design, and I was in the midst of formulating one when I started looking through the comments from all our donors so far. Yes, we actually read what you write us. And now all I want to say is "Thank you." It is so humbling and moving to get your feedback. I'm quite certain that no magazine has ever been blessed with such devoted readers. It's amazing how many of you chip in something despite straitened circumstances, and say you wish you could give more. A bunch of you are frustrated with the current site, but it doesn't keep you from coming back. (Please be assured that we hear your feedback, by the way -- a way to view the site chronologically and better author pages are common suggestions.) A number of you are print subscribers, so don't have a reason to feel "guilty" about reading NRO for free, yet
