I subscribe to The Washington Post, Time, US News and World Reports, The New Republic, The New York Review of Books, National Review, Commentary, The National Interest, and several other journals. I read several French news sources almost daily on- line, including the televised news service, Le Parisien, Le Monde, and Le Liberation. I have an on- line subscription to The New York Times, although I have been reading it less lately. I think I am getting enough news sources, thanks......
