Our name is about honesty. The Monitor is owned by The Christian Science Church, and we’ve always been transparent about that.
The Church publishes the Monitor because it sees good journalism as vital to progress in the world. Since 1908, we’ve aimed “to injure no man, but to bless all mankind,” as our founder, Mary Baker Eddy, put it.
Here, you’ll find award-winning journalism not driven by commercial influences – a news organization that takes seriously its mission to uplift the world by seeking solutions and finding reasons for credible hope.

Excerpts from some of the secret recordings made in the JFK White House are revealed in the new book 'Listening In.'
Former president Harry Truman called Kennedy in July, 1963, after Kennedy spoke on television about the Nuclear Test Ban Treaty. Truman was effusive in his praises for Kennedy. "My goodness, maybe we can save a total war with it," he said. "If you could say something tomorrow, I think that'd really give us a lift," Kennedy told him, referring to a public statement to the press. Truman agreed. "I'll be glad to say it.... I want to do whatever will be helpful to you," he said.
