I’ve long figured that the corporations advertising in New Republic are doing so with an eye toward public relations against liberals reading The Nation, though the duplicate Boeing ad is interesting.  I guess the messages poke into the National Review — Chevron is about more than oil.  There is an odd convergence in the “Mutual funds that value your values” which converge with the basic message of ads found in The Nation, a type of message I do not see in The New Republic.
