I still buy the Sunday Times most weekends. Why? Because I'm not buying it for the 'news'. I'm buying it for the guaranteed insights I trust it for and the presentation style I enjoy. Very few blogs or news sites really nail this the way print does, nor the moments of serendipity when you're browsing through a paper and something catches your eye.

I read Prospect on the train a fair bit, or Time (European edition - I've heard the US edition is relatively dumbed down) sometimes. The Spectator and the Economist are or at least were good at such insights as well.
