 Excellent Magazine!! January 1, 2008

I have been a subscriber to The Progressive for nearly 4 years now; it is an excellent read for those on the left of the political spectrum. The Progressive is unapologetic in its support for truly Liberal (i.e. Progressive) Politics, pulls no punches when evaluating the Bush Dictatorship that we have been living under for nearly 8 years now. It does an excellent job of holding so-called (self-proclaimed) liberal politicians feet to the fire. Also does a nice job of highlighting certain states and cities that have truly progressive/liberal leaders holding the reigns. I would recommend this magazine to anyone interested in having a better understanding of our current political landscape.
 Good, but limited October 18, 2005

This is a good magazine for progressives and liberal-minded folks. The magazine uses the same authors and writers for each issue. This is both good and bad. Good because you get to know the writing style, ideas and thoughts from these writers; they become kind of like friends after a while. Bad because you get the same views all the time; there's no diversity and it feels a bit in-bred.
Still a quality magazine with passionate articles about things that really matter.
I will renew my Subscription for the rest of my life October 16, 2005

This magazine is published every month. For me it's a big event. I can't wait to finger though the pages, look at the articles, and read the columns from my favorite writers like Molly Ivans. If you are a conservative this magazine is not for you, but if you are a moderate, or some where on the left you will love this magazine! Senator Robert Lafollette R-WI originally founded it. He ran for president in 1924 under the Progressive party (which has since died out). He received 4,826,471 popular votes and 13 electoral votes. It was one of the first publications ever to publish the writings of Martian Luther King and has since been a strong voice against the war in Iraq. This magazine should be cherished for being well, progressive.

Taking the reins from Erwin Knoll (R.I.P.), Mr. Rothschild has very ably continued the great work of progressive / left commentary and articles. A terrific publication. Check out www.progressive.org for timely updates on national goings-on.
One of the best magazines on the shelf June 26, 2003

Always feisty and dedicated to true peace and the Bill of Rights like few other periodicals, The Progressive is a consistent, independent source for information, analysis and lively, intelligent commentary. Standing outside the mainstream business owned press The Progressive routinely runs stories that are either ignored or buried by the establishment media. Labor, environmental, racial, gender, and military and corporate power issues are dealt with from the perspective of the masses of working people and societal underdogs rather than CEOs, major stockholders, Pentagon flacks and covert bigots. A relatively recent column unearthed the truth behind the sanctions and bombings of Iraq that went on throughout the 90s. Deliberately tainting the Iraqi civilian water supply was well known to Washington policymakers as The Progressive's brilliant article proved. Also it's one of the few publications in the United States to constantly berate Israel for the lawlessness and brutality it perpetrates against the Palestinians. These days that's gutsy journalism indeed. The Progressive garnered world wide attention and essentially became a household word in the late 70s when it refused to buckle under and courageously stood up for the sanctity of the First Amendment during the A-Bomb case. This is the exact moxie and hard hitting reporting a subsriber can expect. With a lively letters page and some hilarious columnists it's one of the best magazines around.
