If I wanted an answer to this question, one of the last places I’d look for an answer is in the New Yorker. Not that the writing would be biased or inaccurate (necessarily), but why the New Yorker? I’d go to them for well-written articles on active war reporting, but what policy expertise do they claim in this area as contrasted with hundreds of actual policy-focused channels available across the Internet?
