You are comparing news to market research...

  Is there a hard distinction?

    I'm not sure how to respond to that question, so I will just give a straight answer. Yes. A very big one.

      Let me try this again, since your answer contains no information. Why do people read news? What are they trying to get from it? Especially in the case of the Economist, a large fraction of the readers are going to be in the business of finance and investment. For the microsecond-to-microsecond data, there's Bloomberg. For longer views? The Economist. Their entire pitch is that it's information likely to be useful to your business.
