Summary: Excellent Newspaper For All Readers The WSJ has always been required reading for business people and finance wonks, but in the past several years the whole thing -- reporting, layout, editorials -- has been overhauled and the result is one of the best general newspapers in America. First of all, business, economics, finance, etc. are extremely important to everyone whether their profession involves these things or not. Everyone's lives are shaped by these things and it is important to understand them. Second of all, a thoughtful couterpoint to the "liberal media" has long been lacking and the WSJ editorials fill the need ... read both the WSJ and the New York Times every day and you will likley hear two, thoughtful but opposing sides of all the major issues confronting our nation and world, from which you can begin to develop your own independent view. I cannot recommend strongly enough that everyone subscribe to and read the WSJ every (week) day. Summary: Highly Recommended One of my Business professors, years ago told us to READ IT! I'm addicted. The "What's News" section (shaded area on the front page) if nothing else, needs your attention. The op-ed's are pretty good at times, however, I have had differences and have had them responded to. Conservative in nature, but highly informative. If your into business or studying business... get used to it. It's a great tool. The NYT business section is okay, but this paper is at the apex of the industry. Summary: Simply outstanding The Wall Street Journal stands head and shoulders above any other news daily. The quality and objectivity of the reporting are unimpeachable and the relevance of the information provided is second to none. Summary: Newspaper is great, Synpase Services is not! I found that the newspaper was exactly what my previous revieweres had described, a journal of world events which have a potential impact on the Wall Street stocks, bonds and funds. Don't expect a complete news coverage but coverage of events relevant to the business world. All in all I am very happy with the quality of reporting. What I am not happy with is the service provided by Synapse Services. Their local contractor in the South Bay Area, California did not deliver the journal on July 2nd and July 6th, 2004. When I called to ask about this, Synpase was not able to provide me with any useful information, and was not able to tell me if the newspaper was not delivered or was stolen instead. They did not make any effort to get to the bottom of the issue but instead advised me to wait for another day to see if service resumes. Summary: Best Newspaper in the US Every newspaper has a political orientation of some sort, and the WSJ is no exception; what differentiates the WSJ from every other mahjor newspaper in America is that it has a wall between News and Editorial sections. There's probably no other paper in the world whose news reporting is as free of politics, and that's part of what makes it such a great source of unbiased news and information. The Op-Ed pages are also a treasure, particularly if you do subscribe to the Journal's libertarian-Republican point of view. And even if you don't it's always worth learning what the other side says. Leftists are well represented in the person of Al Hunt, whose weekly commentary keeps the reader abreast of what's current in Democratic circles. Writers from all sides are regularly represented in guest columns, too; last week's paper had an essay by Lech Walesa on the role Ronald Reagan played in supporting Solidarity and the Pope in the early days of their struggle againt the Polish government. I've begun almost every weekday of the past twenty years with a cup of coffee and my copy of the WSJ. I can't imagine changing. |
