The weekly dispatches will cover America’s place in the world, what it means to pursue the American dream, and the disputes that divide us put forward new ideas about politics, tech, culture, history, law, and media and advise readers on friendship, relationships, work, and life. The Atlantic’s newsletter writers will establish an ongoing dialogue with readers-building on the same themes week over week, running toward complexity, sharing their observations and obsessions, and, in essence, thinking aloud in public. “The evolution of newsletters is one of the most important things happening in journalism today, and we’re thrilled that so many great new writers, with so many big ideas, are coming together at The Atlantic,” says Nicholas Thompson, CEO of The Atlantic. Growing our family of newsletters dramatically seemed like one good way to better serve our readers.” The Atlantic, which is already home to writers with clashing worldviews and original ways of seeing what is (as a great writer who didn’t have a newsletter once said) too often right in front of our noses, is always keen to showcase for our readers new writers, and new kinds of writing. In an editor’s note introducing the collection, editor in chief Jeffrey Goldberg writes: “Newsletters are conversational, unrehearsed, contingent, revelatory, humble, and entertaining, and journalism can always use more of these qualities. After a free trial period, which ends on November 30, readers will need to subscribe to The Atlantic to access the full offerings. The newsletters are an exclusive benefit for subscribers. All have joined The Atlantic as contributing writers, and their newsletters will be distributed by email and available on The Atlantic’s website. The first issues of all nine newsletters are available to read now, from Jordan Calhoun, Nicole Chung, David French, Xochitl Gonzalez, Molly Jong-Fast, Tom Nichols, Imani Perry, Yair Rosenberg, and Charlie Warzel.
Today The Atlantic is launching newsletters for subscribers from an outstanding and eclectic slate of new writers––beginning an ambitious expansion that builds on its successful current suite of newsletters and brings more of the best writing to The Atlantic.
