Founded in 1857, the original focus of this US magazine was literature and culture. When it was on the brink of financial ruin in 2010, its publishers decided to change the focus to US politics, international politics and the economy. This strategy has ensured its survival for the time being. Subscriptions to the online edition in particular have boomed. The Atlantic appears ten times a year.
