During the Clinton era the eXile gained credibility when it bucked the optimistic Washington concensus about post-Soviet Russia's capitalist future and predicted the ensuing economic collapse brought about by rampant corruption, cronyism, and theft. The eXile has also gained a reputation for pulling many pranks and stunts. The eXile was founded in 1997 by Mark Ames. Matt Taibbi was recruited after the third issue and became a co-editor. Since 1998 the full text of The eXile has been available online at The eXile's website.
