The Nat Geo mag was once a venerated… The Nat Geo mag was once a venerated chronicle of people and places—no more. It has digressed into a pop culture social rag with issues found on every media site. Its become “Mother Jones” with an Atlas. Too bad! It desperately needs another editorial team in order to restore it former glory.

Low quality popscience with no integrity I used to love Nat Geo's magazines and read stacks of old issues almost cover to cover back when I assumed that the content was genuine and scientific. The illusion first shattered when I discovered the "Dog Whisperer" TV show that masqueraded abuse as dog training, and saw that Nat Geo just ignored all the damning critique from highly educated actual behaviour specialists, who implored them to stop the show because it is 1. unscientific, and 2. likely to harm many pet dogs as viewers try to emulate Millan's methods from the popular show. Nat Geo continued the show year after year because the show is popular, and because science, ethics and integrity apparently does not matter... all the sciency gloss is just pretend

Don't chance your money on an NG History subscription! NGHIstory is a great magazine but sadly their subscription service is disgraceful! On several occasions I got a year subscription but magazines went missing. As a last chance I took out a subscription for a year in 2022 and heard nothing back till I asked them what went wrong and they said - I took out a subscription for Canada readers! Something really wrong with these people - I am thinking of taking legal action

Fire customer support people Just had the most ridiculous conversation with not 1 but 2 (supervisor) customer service people..... First from Philippines who COULD NOT UNDERTAND AND ANSWER BASIC QUESTIONS RE: no issues received for 3 months. Both she and supervisor (American who spoke English) could not listen or understand the problem. Each gave different info re: problem, then adding 3 more problems. Glad to find N G complaint site....seems I experienced same problems with customer service. Simple questions, rude etc etc etc....... ....will not renew current sub...

Down the Tubes I have been a National Geographic member/subscriber for over 50 years. I read my parents magazines for almost 20 years before that. I will be a member no longer. I can no longer tolerate the racist, sexist bent of this once vibrant magazine. The editor has brought her lack of scientific background and personal prejudices to bear on her work--where it has no place. Every issue is has become a far left opinion piece instead of fact-based story with broad interest. Too bad.
