Letter to the Editor

Your March 2007 issue has to be the most dramatic TNI cover you’ve ever done—I’m not kidding! It’s bold, intriguing, speaks volumes symbolically, and is chock full of delicious implications. If I were a total stranger (interested in ideas but not necessarily an Objectivist), I guarantee you that my hand would reach out for this issue on any newsstand. And once inside, I’d be hooked by the unfailingly excellent writing on provocative and timely issues.

By the way, why ISN’T this issue—and all the others, starting with that fascinating issue devoted to Ayn Rand with the dynamite Jolie-Pitt cover [January-February 2006]—on the newsstands? Isn’t it about time TNI was boosted into national magazine status, as it deserves to be?

We appreciate those words very much, Erika. Thanks to art editor David Sims, we have some of the most distinctive and provocative magazine covers anywhere. As for your question about getting on newsstands nationwide—it’s an expensive proposition for us, but trust me, we’re working on it. -RJB
