didn't check yesterdays page. This is one example where the site fails, changed url, same title (update: wrong) and where the poster (me) has to check.
If you notice the a) compared to b) notice there are no graphs. ... read a bit more: B) has been re-edited down from print A) and re-purposed. I had to re-read both to see B) is a re-write. Even the sub-heading are changed. I do believe B) is an inferior version of A).

- davidw 12y agoThe Economist has lead editorials, and then more in-depth articles. B) is a leader (you can even see it in the URL), A) is the more in-depth article. You can see them both listed here: http://www.economist.com/printedition/2015-01-24 http://www.economist.com/printedition/2015-01-24 I think that they make a lot of good points, and think it's a good article (I subscribe to The Economist), but also think it's primarily a political subject and discussion.
