Always on the lookout for good writing with a little kick to it, The Scrapbook is pleased to announce its discovery of American Consequences, a new magazine edited by none other than our valued contributing editor P. J. O’Rourke. This is the first magazine P. J. has edited since stepping down from National Lampoon these many years ago. But there’s a difference: Whereas the Lampoon specialized in sex jokes, profane cartoons, and pictures of topless women, American Consequences deals in business, finance, and economics.
The first three issues show that P. J. has assembled a lively and knowledgeable stable of writers who can make worthy subjects interesting—even fun—to read about: the pros and cons of bitcoin; the “Escher effect” of the Federal Reserve’s surreal manipulations; and a scary new creature called “mutant capitalism.” And best of all: It’s free! You can see for yourself at AmericanConsequences.com.
