I am Tom Standage, Digital Editor at The Economist. AMA
- cschmidt 14y agoIncluding... Q. I know that the editorial staff at the Economist hates Silvio Berlusconi, so I have to ask... Would you rather fight one horse sized Silvio Berlusconi or 100 duck sized Silvio Berlusconis? and Q. Who are your articles geared towards with regard to audience - professionals or academics? A. They are geared towards a curious alien who has just landed and speaks English. This is why we say things like "Ford, a carmaker".
