Rating  - Great for political junkies!
If you're a political junkie, probably more left leaning, then the weekly edition of Washington Post hits the spot. This edition includes indepth reports, articles, and their opinion columns for the past 7-10 days of each issue. After living in Washington, D.C. for four years, I got spoiled with the every day and behind the scenes reporting conducted by the Washington Post. This weekly edition is second only to the daily editions. I think it's a better choice than buying the Sunday edition available across the country. And Amazon offers a great price.
Rating  - Invisible Paper!
How could I possibly review this product when I have yet received a copy of the paper.
Rating - Interesting.
The paper was as it was sold as. In other words, it was correctly represented.
Rating - Insightful news from inside the beltway
This magazine is terrific for someone trying to keep up with what's going on in Washington. After every issue I feel like I have really gained some unique insights.
Compliants: I have the distinct feeling that the weekly edition is the redheaded stepchild of the daily edition. The weekly edition seems complacent and unimaginative -- I don't get the feeling that the magazine is getting ready to just take off. The coverage of international news is very spotty, so why not focus on foreign policy instead of random international stories? I am still fuming that the weekly edition didn't include the three part series about Dick Cheney, "The Angler." This weekly should include the best of the Washington Post and excluding this acclaimed series is unforgivable. More book reviews, and opinion/columnists would be nice. Without an expansion of these features, the people who point out that the content is free online certainly have a point. Finally what about some more advertisers? I really like this magazine, but the price is high enough that I really have to think about renewing every time.
Even though I always have to think about renewing, I don't hestiate in giving it four stars.
