I was introduced to the Epoch Times several months ago, and I was impressed with it, so I subscribed. I am especially pleased with the thoroughness of your reporting. It’s helpful to know the backstory and/or context surrounding an event—something that is so often lacking in most “sound-bite” style reports.

In addition to news, I appreciate articles like that of Jenny Phillips, who has developed an age-appropriate reading list (The Good and The Beautiful) to which I, as a grandmother, can refer to and know that the books I select to read to my grandchildren will be worthy of our time, and not promoting disrespectful or perverse behaviors.

You have also published many articles that should be required reading for every high school student. The most recent example was the series on the Electoral College. Others include virtue and its role in a free civil society, how one thinks about money, and general stories about our history.

I also appreciate that The Epoch Times comes via U.S. Postal service rather than thrown at my property from a passing truck! It arrives dry in my mailbox. I read it and pass it on to someone else. It’s great, thank you.
