  • The New Yorker was one of President Franklin D. Roosevelt's most tenacious media critics. On December 22, 1941, shortly after the attack at Pearl Harbor, The New Yorker wrote an expose on how woefully unprepared the U.S. Navy had been on December 7. It followed that article with an examination of the missteps at Wake Island on December 29, 1941. One February 9, 1942, it lambasted the War Department for the untested Mark XIV torpedo and its subsequent unreliability in combat. On March 23, 1942, The New Yorker published its last critical article, questioning the administration's claims to have sunk German U-boats and the loss of American ships in the Atlantic Ocean. The New Yorker was shut down by the FBI shortly after.

In 1940, he submitted "Downhill Skier," which earned him an offer to come on board full-time for New York's premier literary magazine. He continued there until his death in 1988, drawing over 1,300 cartoons.

In "Brian Goes Back to College", the magazine offers Brian a job here following his report on a Quahog 1980s TV convention in a local newspaper. The magazine fires him on his first day upon the revelation that Griffin dropped out of college. Employees include Amelia Bedford Furthington Chesterhill, Wellesley Shepherdson, Livingston Winstofford, Fielding Wellingtonsworth, and James William Bottomtooth III. All employees are socialites of the upper case, all having three tier names. The restrooms of the building all have armchairs, actual toilets being unneeded since no one working for The New Yorker has an anus.

  • Charles Addams began as a cartoonist in the The New Yorker with a sketch of a window washer that ran on February 6, 1932.

He continued there until his death in 1988, drawing over 1,300 cartoons. During the run of the original television series, The New Yorker editor William Shawn refused to publish any Addams Family cartoons, though he continued to publish other Charles Addams cartoons. Shawn regarded his magazine as targeting a more refined readership, and did not want it associated with characters who could be seen on television by just anybody. After Shawn's 1987 retirement, the characters were welcomed back to The New Yorker.
