premise: MIT Technology Review is a magazine published by the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. It was founded in 1899 as The Technology Review, and was re-launched without "The" in its name on April 23, 1998 under then publisher R. Bruce Journey. In September 2005, it underwent another transition under its then editor-in-chief and publisher, Jason Pontin, to a form resembling the historical magazine.
hypothesis: MIT Technology Review was initially launched as "MIT Technology Review".  
reason: The magazine was re-launched without "The" in its name on April 23, 1998, which means the initial launch could not possibly have been "MIT Technology Review"
