A 501(c)(3) nonprofit think tank for American libertarianism, the Reason Foundation publishes Reason (magazine). Founded in 1968, it describes its mission as "advanc[ing] a free society by developing, applying, and promoting libertarian principles, including individual liberty, free markets, and the rule of law." The founder was Robert W. Poole, Jr., David Nott is the current presiden and Matt Welch is editor-in-chief of Reason. While it supports the philosophy of libertarianism, it is not associated with the Libertarian Party or any other political group. In addition to its magazine, it arranges for expert speakers and presents web pages and Internet videos. National politicsIt has published articles that express concern with mainstream media exaggeration of issues such as the Tea Party Movement and Rand Paul.
Columnist David Harsanyi suggests that liberals, such as Eugene Robinson of the Washington Post, are using opportunities such as the clumsy statement of Rand Paul to deny"The fact is, nearly everyone—including, it seems, most libertarians and Paul himself—agree that the Civil Rights Act was necessary in untangling repressive, government-codified Southern racism. The problem is that some of this kind of well-intentioned and important legislation has been used to validate the infinite creep of Washington intrusion into commerce and life."
