History

National Review was founded in 1955 by conservative journalist William F. Buckley Jr. In the journal's initial effect, Buckley wrote that a conservative weekly opinion magazine was needed because "literate America rejected conservatism in favor of radical social experimentation." He saw the journal's mission as a counterpoint to such experimentation: "It stands athwart history, yelling Cease, at a fourth dimension when no one is inclined to do so, or to have much patience with those who so urge information technology."[1]

As an exclusively print journal, National Review maintained a "reputation equally the cradle for conservative intellectuals and domicile for erudite and well-mannered debate," according to The New York Times.[2] The paper further noted that, although National Review was openly conservative, it did non act as a "megaphone for Republican Political party orthodoxy." Rather, its editorial stance largely followed that of Buckley, who was known for the "surprise twists in his views."[2]

As a print journal, National Review was a consistently conservative voice in the national political landscape. The bourgeois blog Town Hall praised the journal as having "writers and thinkers uniquely unafraid to follow in Buckley's behemothic footsteps and tell it like it is."[3]

In early on 2015, National Review officially became a nonprofit arrangement. Commenting to Politico, editor Rich Lowry said: "Publishing a serious opinion mag has never been a profitable business, and never will exist."[four]

Current online work for National Review Online is centered on breaking Washington, D.C., based news and vi major blogs—"The Corner," "The Campaign Spot," "Bench Memos," "Phi Beta Cons," "Postmodern Conservative" and "Human being Exceptionalism."[5] Of these, "The Corner" is the longest-running and most widely read. It is the site's featured web log with the tagline "The One and Only."[half-dozen] In 2009, Politico noted that National Review "stands out every bit the just 20th century conservative institution—a 54-yr-old magazine—that has fabricated such a leap into the 21st."[7]
