Hi T L. I would not consider cancelling my subscriptions to NY Times and WAPO. Just the other day, HCR called our addition to Mike Schmidt's reporting on IRS' audits of both 'Comey and McCabe, Who Infuriated Trump'. If you check Notes at the end of the Letter, there are often links to articles in WAPO and the NYTimes. Both newspapers have their weaknesses, but what 'journalistically' founded news outlet could be tailored to most of our interests and political philosophy? I elected to receive the Times', The Morning newsletter (no charge) heading by David Leonhardt, which you might find worthwhile. I frequently check with Vox Media and Politico as well as subscribing to the magazines you referred to. Pew Research Center is excellent for solid research studies. That's my info story in brief. Cheers!

Fern, I couldn't decide whether to cancel or not. Then I got a notice that my credit card no longer works. I didn't update with the new expiration date. Now can't figure out how to update it, so that pushed me to give NYT itself an expiration date. I will subscribe to Guardian, and continue Atlantic., and, of course, TCInLA!!

Ask a friend to help or call the credit card company. Are you okay?

I am okay, thanks. I just hate messing with digging out my new card, finding my reading glasses, putting on my reading glasses..

Thank you for your suggestions, Fern. I have kept up my digital morning newsletter by Leonhardt and I haven't yet cancelled the WaPo.

I do think there are too many lazy journalists who write their stuff without bothering to get out of their comfy bubble and do a little on the street research. I'm really liking the Guardian and Mother Jones. I try to read as many articles as I can by Pro Publica, Vox, Politico and of course, HCR, Reich and TC everyday.
