The Canadian Broadcasting Company aired this past Sunday a profile of our editor in chief, which, I must say, is quite balanced, even appreciative. Who’d of thunk it?
Click here for the CBC’s website, and you should be able to access a video of the mini-documentary. (You may have to download a special “plug-in” to play the video.)
P.S. While I risk the charge of vain repetition, I nevertheless will remind you of the little green button on the left-hand side of the page, which will take you to our new group blog . More and more of you have been clicking and bookmarking, and we appreciate it.
Dear Reader,
Can I be direct with you?
War abroad. Socialists on the rise. AI upending human life. Endless uproar online. The modern attention economy doesn’t want readers — it wants users enslaved to the tyranny of the present.
First Things is the antidote: literary excellence, timeless truths, and a fixed point of reference in a culture that has lost its bearings.
But we can’t do it without readers like you.
Our goal: Raise $150,000 by November 1 to sustain First Things in the year ahead.
Your gift anchors readers in the permanent things.

If you have any questions or would like more information, please contact Giovanni Del Piero, Director of the Editor’s Circle, at gdelpiero@firstthings.com or 212-627-1985.
