I get confused about which of the opinion mags are lib and which ones are
conservative. I don't read them (on either side).
"National Journal" doesn't sound familiar. I've heard of "National Review"

I think that when you bring up the name of a national opinion rag, you
should identify which side of the aisle it's on.
