The magazine was critical of Democratic National Committee chairman Larry O'Brien, and championed the candidacy of South Dakota Senator George McGovern over that of Maine Senator Ed Muskie and former Vice President Hubert Humphrey in the 1972 Democratic presidential primaries. He later worked as a staff writer at Time magazine.
