Is it really that shocking to you that all of the people employed by the solidly Libertarian Party chief editor and all of the staff went for Johnson or said that they weren't going to vote?
Your poll indicates that my suspicions were correct.

Correction: Reason is a 50 year-old print magazine named the 21st best magazine in America by the Chicago Tribune
Sym: Reason would naturally only endorse the Libertarian candidate!
Correction: In 2008 the plurality of their staff endorsed Barack Obama, the Democrat candidate.
Sym: Well, well ... any difference in 2008 was because of a change in editors. Their 2012 editor wrote a pro-Libertarian book - there was a radical editorial shift!
Correction: Their 2008 editor wrote the same book (they were co-authors).
Sym: I DON'T CARE. Reason is the mouthpiece of the Libertarian Party!
Correction: Reason pushes an overtly libertarian viewpoint like New Republic pushes an overtly center-left viewpoint. New Republic is not owned by the Democrat Party, Reason is not owned by the Libertarian Party.
If you want to join in discussions about USA politics, I think you need to spend some time educating yourself about the major players in the principal commentary journals, don't you agree? I'm sure you do. You've made yourself look a little silly in this thread by very basic factual errors and wild attempts to cover them up by making even bigger factual errors.
I'm glad you've come around now. Hopefully you will educate yourself a little more before spouting off nonsense.
