Now I make a subscription for the next year. Of course, the main amount of information is already accustomed to receive from the Internet, but, nevertheless, I try to view the “paper” versions. A number of publications necessary in the work are issued through the government, but this year I decided to specifically, at his own expense, to issue two magazines.
The first is the "amateur" . Many people know that I am fond of history. And on trips, when there is free time, I always tried to buy this magazine. I believe that the “amateur” team managed to make a really interesting product, passing on the verge between excessive “academicity” and “poppy”. It is such formats that can really popularize the history, without sliding into excessive simplification or propaganda.
The second is the New Times . Here you can find a variety of materials: from an interview with the press secretary of the President to acute criticism of the current government. Of course, I do not agree with all the materials - and often argue with the editor -in -chief of the magazine. But I am extremely interested in the desire that Evgenia Markovna Albats writes about , to ensure the release of the publication at the expense of subscribers. And thus, to make an independent socio-political media, the success of which would only depend on the popularity of the audience.
