Thanks for the post. One can feel your pain flowing through it. I have a rather naive question: Why do you recommend "the Economist" as oppose to something like the HBR?

I've read the Economist for the last 20 years and the HBR for a few months before I dropped it. The Economist offers insight, thoughtful analysis and writes about the world: literally but also politics, culture, and science. The obituary is surprisingly fascinating for instance. You may not always agree with its position, but you know that their position will be worth engaging with and thinking about. No, I don't work for the Economist, I just appreciate thoughtful articles. Same goes for Private Eye, Foreign Affairs, New Yorker.

  The best obituaries are in the Telegraph. I am still angry they have put them all behind a paywall :(

    Aha interesting! Never read their obits. I find Evans-Pritchard a good read.
