Interloc is the internal publication of American Mensa, focusing on the internal workings and politics of Mensa rather than the broader and more general-interest subject matter of the Mensa Bulletin, which generally stays away from internal politics except for things mandated to be included such as election information. For most of its history, Interloc has had a brown cover. Content has varied depending on the editors, with some taking a strict "house organ" style while others are more willing to include "dissident" views. At times there have been reports of attempted or successful interference by Mensa politicians over what the editors could publish. Formerly, it included complete AMC minutes, but this is considered unnecessary now due to their availability on the Web. Some have questioned the need for the publication at all in the age of Internet forums, but it has survived so far.
