The intended audience for The Atlantic, is people from Generation X and Millennials with neutral to liberal views. Various articles criticizing Donald Trump have been published in the magazine, in March 2017, Trump made the cover with the headline stating "How To Build an Autocracy", clearly demonstrating their anti-Trump views, but, the Republicans have not been condemned as a whole. The magazine has held liberal views since it's initiation, it shared the narrative of a runaway slave, stories by abolitionist, and Martin Luther King Jr's "Letter from Birmingham Jail". But despite the liberal views, there is no doubt that individuals with more conservative values read the magazine, due to the fact that The Atlantic has a diverse range of articles that vary from psychology, business, and art.
