They have a blog, and a daily article, generally by an academic economist, but usually covering a topic of general interest in a non-dry way. The past 5 years of the housing boom and bust have played out exactly as they were predicting back in 2001. They also have a lot of great books, such as "Americas Great Depression" which disassembles many of the common myths about the great depression. Unfortunately, most economics writing in the mainstream press is really political propaganda masquerading as economics. mises.org doesn't deny the political ramifications of their conclusions, but they also don't only present one view. Definitely worth checking out periodically. The most lucid economics writing for non-economists that I’ve found is at http://www.mises.org.
