Washingtonian Magazine - June 2012 "100 Cheap Eats" was just delivered…read more Says: "... you don't have to spend more than $25 a person ,tax and tip included to eat famously well." While I have not read their entire list, I seriously question most of their offerings! Maybe an appetizer, water and a $.02 tip (which I don't do). Your Yelper expert thoughts, please.

Because I am a lifelong Washingtonian ( and I mean one who has lived within the borders of this…read moreplace)-I consider this magazine a guilty pleasure. Why? Because, face it, the features are often about "Washington" ( as in, you know, Middleburg, Virginia)-with only a smidgen of the city's flavor thrown in on occasion... Or about as often as one sees or meets an actual Washingtonian at a Nationals game. In other words, it kinda is and kinda isn't for "us". Still (kick me, somebody) -I buy it. I think because its reality is so removed from mine (I'm not an" A" list person by any means)-it represents a kind of vacation... But it pisses me off sometimes as well... Ah, we humans are a paradoxical species, yes?

I never subscribed to this magazine. Its taken me months to get them to stop sending it to me. They…read morestill refuse. While this magazine is not my cup of tea, it shouldn't take any publication months to cancel, especially sine we never subscribed or paid for a subscription. I am not the only one. this magazine is doing this to bloat the number of subscribers. Pretty slimy stuff.

I've noticed some other reviews are essentially left-wing screeds against this publication. Because…read morethe Washington Examiner isn't To-The-Left such as The New York Times (which is not what it used to be), or the Washington Post (where, thanks to Bezos, Democracy Has Already Died In Darkness), it must be bad. Sorry, that's not how it goes. Like most papers The Washington Examiner is compprised of a) news items and b) opinion pieces. The opinion pieces are more Conservative (What, you wanted more CNN?) but not fanboy level. The news articles themselves state the who/what/when/where/why relatively straightforward... which is what textbook-definition JOURNALISM is supposed to be about. Seriously, the negative reviews by those who have a partisan bent aren't a good barometer of the paper's worth. The reality is most forms of media today have some slant, the question is whether that slant is to the extent that they'll a) regularly omit inconvenient truths, b) write misleading headlines (and then bury the lede contradicting that headline, etc.) and so on. I tend to get my news from multiple sources because too many so-called MSM sources tend to decide the truth for the reader without providing all the facts. Considering how wrong the MSM/ Press has been in the past 5+ years, determining the narrative ahead of the facts, it behooves you to find news sources which at least give you enough background on a subject so you can tell whether it's opinion-disguised-as-news, a false narrative being pushed (by whom, you'll have to figure that out yourself), or something that appears factually grounded. Enough with the cognitive dissonance and being manipulated.

Though I prefer a hard copy edition, it's okay to settle for the digital.

AI infection What a…read moresupreme disappointment. I am beside myself and so very, very sad. I've been a print subscriber for more than 20 years, and the New Yorker is a mainstay. I love the New Yorker and I love David Sedaris in all of his incarnations. I was so happy to see in the print version his narrative about the care and feeding of Hugh, his significant other, after Hugh's hip surgery. I was so looking to hearing David's narration in the June 30, 2025 issue. But a pox upon the house of the New Yorker for skipping David's narration and substituting a generated voice. No one has a voice like David Sedaris, and the automaton the New Yorker hired totally sucked. I am heartbroken. Please don't do this again, ever, at least not with the work of David Sedaris. Shame! Shame! Shame! Shit, I'm out of breath. Please don't do this again, at least not with the work of David Sedaris.

My main issue is with the company not simply refunding me the $99. There is no phone customer support and there the email rep told me that their agreement states absolutely no refunds once I'm charged for the annual membership. I've been in this situation a few times over the years where you automatically get charged a big amount of money after a teaser intro period and the companies have refunded me the big charge no questions asked. Smells of desperation on the part of The Daily Caller not willing to issue me a refund. I'll keep posting negative reviews.
