The Economist. Their ability to capture the "nuance" and detail of any story from the perspective of those who are most involved is absolutely unmatched.
Here's an example. For the majority of my life I've been a hardcore gamer. By that I mean esports, tournaments, strategy and more.
My most recent game was Dota which I played for 3 years then moved onto Dota 2 for 4 years.
The Economist wrote a story on the esports explosion and culture and they TOTALLY nailed it.
They were able to capture the emotion and passion people have for video games, and why someone like me would travel across the country to go to tournaments, and spend hours watching professional players on Twitch TV.
I had seen dozens of articles in the New York Times, Washington Post, the New Yorker, but none of them really captured what it was like to follow the esports scene.
The Economist always captures the essence and nuance of many different stories around the world, perfectly. That's why always come back to it for excellent stories and news.
