The Economist is good, if you can swallow their ideology It's very open about it, but it does not conform to most people's idea of what news should be.
Süddeutsche Zeitung is good in Germany space, although it may do a bit too much of normal and national news.
- kilroy123 9y agoJust curious, what exactly is their ideology?
- tonyedgecombe 9y agoPragmatism.
- lordgrenville 9y agoClassical liberalism.
- MagnumOpus 9y agoClassic liberalism (i.e. fiscally conservative, socially progressive, economically mainstream/globalist)
- adrianratnapala 9y agoI agree with both of these, though it is hard for me to read German, so I rarely finish whole articles in SZ. The Economist's ideology has become pretty mundane, they have drifted left over the years, and while they still defend free markets, they do it from a technocratic almost social-democratic point of view. It should all be very much in line with what blue-state American's already believe, though perhaps from a perspective that is a bit eye-opening.
