Organizations Filed Purposes:
DEDICATED TO INCREASING PUBLIC KNOWLEDGE THROUGH WASHINGTON MONTHLY MAGAZINE AND WEBSITE WWW.WASHINGTONMONTHLY.COM. THE PRINT MAGAZINE, IN ITS 51ST YEAR, IS THE MOST IMPORTANT WATCHDOG OF AMERICAN GOVERNMENT BEING PUBLISHED TODAY, DIAGNOSING WHAT'S AWRY IN WASHINGTON AND WORLD AFFAIRS AND HOW TO FIX IT.
WHILE SMALL LOCAL NEWSPAPERS AND BIG DIGITAL OUTLETS ALIKE HAVE CONTINUED TO DOWNSIZE, THE WASHINGTON MONTHLY IS CELEBRATING ITS 51ST YEAR OF PUBLICATION, STILL DOING WHAT FEWER AND FEWER PUBLICATIONS DO TODAY: TELLING FASCINATING, DEEPLY REPORTED GROUNDBREAKING STORIES ABOUT THE PROBLEMS PREVENTING US FROM MOVING FORWARD AS A NATION AND PROVIDING THE INTELLECTUAL TOOLS NECESSARY TO REFORM OUR GOVERNMENT INSTITUTIONS AND ENHANCE THEIR PERFORMANCE. NO OTHER PUBLICATION DOES A BETTER JOB OF LOOKING AT THE IDEAS AND CHARACTERS THAT ANIMATE AMERICA'S GOVERNMENT, POLITICS, AND CULTURE. AMONG THE TOPICS COVERED IN THE PRINT MAGAZINE DURING 2019 WERE: WHAT TO DO ABOUT THE INCREASING DOMINANCE OF CORPORATE GOLIATHS; HOW TO ENCOURAGE BOTH POLITICAL PARTIES TO BUILD THE WIDEST POSSIBLE COALITIONS RATHER THAN JUST PLAY TO THEIR BASES; CONGRESS AND ELECTORAL REFORM, INCLUDING SMALL DONOR FUNDING CAMPAIGNS AND THE NATIONAL EFFORT TO EMPOWER STUDENT ACTIVISTS; AND THE PEOPLE AND IDEAS RESHAPING HIGHER EDUCATION. THESE ARTICLES GARNERED NATIONAL ATTENTION - IN THE MEDIA AND ON CAPITOL HILL, WHERE WE HAND-DELIVER THREE COPIES OF EACH ISSUE. WE ALSO CONTINUE TO PUBLISH THE WIDELY ACCLAIMED COLLEGE GUIDE ISSUE EACH FALL, FEATURING DEEPLY REPORTED ARTICLES ON HIGHER EDUCATION FOR UNDERGRADS, ADULT LEARNERS, AND CERTIFICATE SEEKS. THE GUIDE'S RANKINGS OF COLLEGES AND UNIVERSITIES ARE BASED ON EACH INSTITUTION'S ABILITY TO ENROLL AND GRADUATE STUDENTS OF MODEST MEANS WHILE FOSTERING COMMUNITY SERVICE AND RESEARCH PRODUCTION. SINCE THESE RANKINGS WERE FIRST PUBLISHED IN 2005 THEY HAVE STEADILY GROWN IN INFLUENCE AND PUBLIC AWARENESS. THE MAGAZINE IS KNOWN FOR HAVING LAUNCHED THE CAREERS OF JOURNALISTS WHO HAVE RISEN TO THE PINNACLE OF THE PROFESSION AND CONTINUES TO TRAIN YOUNG JOURNALISTS WHO GO ON TO POPULATE THE MAINSTREAM MEDIA. FEATURED STORIES HIGHLIGHT ISSUES AND FRAME ARGUMENTS THAT ARE OFTEN PICKED UP BY OTHER MEDIA OUTLETS MONTHS OR EVEN YEARS LATER, WHILE OUR WEBSITE (WWW.WASHINGTONMONTHLY.COM) WITH CLOSE TO MILLION VISITORS EACH MONTH PROVIDES ONLINE COMMENTARY AND ANALYSIS THAT'S INFORMATIVE, UNIQUE, AND LASER-FOCUSED ON THE CHALLENGING ISSUES FACING OUR DEMOCRACY. IN AN ERA WHEN THE FREE PRESS IS UNDER RELENTLESS ATTACK, OUR INDEPENDENT VOICE IS FIGHTING BACK.
