Summary: Best Editiorial and Opinion Paper Out there
Comment: The Wall Street Journal is by far and away the #1 Newspaper in the U.S. Its content on a daily basis is great on a daily basis but the number one reason you should purchase this paper is for its editorial and opinion section.
If you think this paper is all about financial news you are mistaken. I originally thought that is what I was going to get and was plesently surprised at the entire coverage of the paper.
I would say if the paper leans one political direction it would be slightly to the right but has an even representation of both Democrats and Republicans on all political issues. Top world leaders and economists seem to have an article in the paper every single day.
Also, the weekend edition of the Journal is outstanding in itself. Sometimes you may not be able to get through the entire paper in a day but if you want the most outstanding and well written opinion section out there, this is the paper to get.

Summary: Do not buy here
Comment: Don't take my star rating as commentary on the quality of the Jouranl as it is a simply must read for any finance professional. I rated one star due to the price on Amazon. I was recently singing up for delivery and thought $249 for a year's subscription doesn't appear too bad. Of course when you compare it to a 54 week subscription for both print and online for $99 it is a terrible deal. If purchasing go to WSJ homepage.

Summary: Well written, best newspaper
Comment: The WSJ is very well written and is entertaining. I subscribe to a local paper for local news, but always rely upon the WSJ for national unbiased news. I especially look forward to the Personal Journal section with news you can use in your life.
I just dropped my subscription to Smartmoney magazine, because I find the same information in the Journal, except several weeks earlier.

Summary: Still The Best Paper In The USA.
Comment: First: the papers market coverage is the best in the USA. The Regular wrap-up features & the Heard On The Street column give colorful nuances to the information. The amount of information itself can be overwhelming to absorb. From the NYSE, junk bonds, to blue chips, this paper is good for both the casual, or serious investor. For me the often underpublicized & finest part of the paper is the investigations & feature reporting. The Journals reporters seem to have more freedom over their work than their competitors, & this approach pays off. Most times column four of the front page has a story that will disgust the reader, or he/she will laugh out loud. It is odd & a bit sad the WSJ's staff rarely gets their kudos when compared to the Washington Post or NYTimes.
Also, of note: the special sections the paper runs from time to time on technology, e-bussiness, international markets, mutual funds, & education are often exceptional. This is usually the part of the paper I enjoy most, because they come at the story presented from most every angle possible. Now the negatives: the paper should stick to the areas I've just described. The arts & lifestyle coverage is mediocre & is less well done & in depth than say the NYTimes. Only Joe Morgenstern's movie reviews are occasionally worth raeding. Granted, I rarely go to the movies. Lastly, the editorial pages are often the ideological opposite of those which one finds in the Times. I like them, & often agree with their "Milton Friedman" points of view. But, like the Times they give little room for opposing perspectives. Still, it is the nations best newspaper.

Summary: The only editorial page in America that sells newspapers
Comment: If you are going to still buy a newspaper in this digital age, make it the Wall Street Journal. There is no better paper in the world.
Concise and filled with the highest levels of accuracy, the Journal is indispensable to anyone seeking to be fully informed on the major issues of the day.
With the addition over the last few years of the daily section "Personal Journal", the Wall Street Journal brings more helpful information of personal value in all the areas of today's life than any other publication.
Spend your subscription money wisely - invest in yourself. You will get personal "returns" when you buy the Wall Street Journal.
