| − | '''The New Republic''' is a bi-monthly, [[neo-liberal]] magazine published in the United States. It was founded in 1914 by [[Herbert Croly]], [[Walter Lippmann]] and Willard Straight using Payne Whitney money. Croly and Lippmann were highly influential contributors. The magazine immediately became—and remains today—one of the most influential organs for the discussion of public issues. Once considered reliably liberal, in recent years it includes as well many [[neoconservative]] ideas and attacks on liberals.<ref> For example, Sean Wilentz, "Who Lincoln Was" ''The New Republic'' (July 15, 2009) is a 25,000 word article that rips apart liberal distortions about Lincoln by Henry Gates and other leftists.[http://www.tnr.com/politics/story.html?id=2634954a-b287-480e-9fbd-8a4663174031 online edition]</ref> | + | '''The New Republic''' is a bi-monthly, [[neo-liberal]] magazine published in the United States.
