The Final Word

Reporter: It is accurate that the president does want to go to Vietnam before the end of this term, isn't it?"

Lockhart: "I would not disagree with that, but I'm not sure I can name a country in the world that wouldn't also fit that bill."

Reporter: "Iraq?"

- From an exchange between reporters and White House press secretary Joe Lockhart during questioning last week about a potential visit to Vietnam by President Clinton.

Why is Christian Science in our name?

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.
