REASON is edited for people interested in economic, social, and international issues. Viewpoint stresses individual liberty, private responsibility, and limited government. Some emphasis on Pacific Rim, local/state issues with national impact, science/technology. Regular departments include news/trends, book reviews (mostly history, politics, and economics), and cultural commentary.
| A magazine that makes you think and reason for yourself | 2010-02-20 | 5 / 5 |

| This is by far my favorite news/politics magazine. I don't agree with everything in any issue but I always find something that makes me think, and it usually inspires me to research and discuss more. Articles range from tiny news blips to lengthy articles about everything from (in this last issue) global warming to Starbucks. Always fascinating. |
| Always enjoyable, occassionally thought-provoking | 2009-03-09 | 4 / 5 |

I'm moderately libertarian, so I usually agree with the views expressed in Reason. I enjoy poring over the news summaries and the book reviews, then skimming the articles. Reason isn't essential for me, but I always look forward to it.
It's worth mentioning that the whole magazine is now available online at Reason.com. |

| I bought a subscription through a fund-raiser. I've been pleased with the variety of subjects, but the articles are very long and dull. I think my favorite piece was a cartoon about the New Hampshire primary. It was in my first issue, and I have not seen anything even remotely creative since. I plan to let my subscription lapse. |

This is not a magazine for ideologues, this is for folks who truly believe in the title "Reason." You won't find the extremes of say "Liberty{Libertarian} or The Nation{Left}" in these pages. For anyone who likes current events & politics this is a new approach at looking at the world. There is a balance of both American & international views without being preachy. The reader may not agree with every articles concluding remedy for said problem? But, you will find the fresh perspective as one which will make you think differently about the issue.
It is divided into five parts. Departments, Culture & Reviews, Articles, Columnists, & Editorials. They all feature current events issues that are put into a new focus when compared to say "Time or Newsweek." The departments are divided into three parts. Letters, Citings, & Artifact. The first is obvious, the second has brief writings as in your local newspaper's. The latter is a one page article at the end of every issue, & often features something funny or unusual. Writers like Nick Gillespie, Jesse Walker, & Michael Lynch do not specialize in any one field. They often contribute to different sections of the magazine at various times. The photos are black & white, it is about seventy pages per issue, it comes out eleven times a year, & has only 15-20% of it devoted to advertising. |
