What Interns Have Said

The research, fact-checking and reporting skills I gained that summer of 2006 have stayed with me in every job and assignment since, as have the talks and seminars by the magazine’s columnists, editors and guests. The Nation is unique in its commitment to covering social justice in the U.S. and abroad while challenging instruments of power.
