Talk:The Freeman

Odd article
This article is odd. It reads like a copyvio, but I can't find any source for it on the web. I will commence wikifying, on the assumption that it is kosher until proven plagiarized. - Nat Krause 11:27, 12 Jan 2005 (UTC)

The statement that The Freeman was founded by Leonard Read, and that what Albert Jay Nock founded was "another publication called The Freeman" is misleading. The original magazine was revived by Nock's co-editor, Suzanne LaFollette, and purchased by Read for FEE.

"In 1950, Nock’s former editorial associate Suzanne La Follette joined with Life editor John Chamberlain and Newsweek columnist Henry Hazlitt to launch another Freeman. There were editorial disagreements, and in1955 The Freeman was acquired by Leonard Read’s Foundation for Economic Education which has published it ever since."

Clarence Carson
Although Carson does not have a Wikipedia biography, he is regarded by The Freeman as one of their important contributors, see Paul A. Cleveland, "Clarence B. Carson, R.I.P.: Carson Lived a Life Full of Significance," The Freeman, July, 2003, vol: 53, iss: 7, or. Oolyons (talk) 21:44, 4 February 2012 (UTC)
