Today's site offers virtually all the content of that venerable print
publication, The Economist. Gentle Subscribers will find most of the
articles of the print edition of the magazine are available for free at the
website, along with some additional features.

"[The Economist] first published in September 1843 to take part in a
'severe contest between intelligence, which presses forward, and an
unworthy, timid ignorance obstructing our progress'. ... Economist.com is
the premier online source for the analysis of world business and current
affairs, providing authoritative insight and opinion on international news,
world politics, business, finance, science and technology, as well as
overviews of cultural trends and regular industry, business and country
special reports." - from the website

This premiere news journal, with a focus on financial matters, has
maintained an outstanding reputation for the sterling quality, not only of
its analysis, but of its prose. Describing its position as being in favor
of free markets and free trade, The Economist online, in addition to the
content of the print edition, includes a number of notable columnists,
updated news stories throughout the week, and a knowledgeable cities guide.
The Country Briefings category highlights extensive information, from
forecasts to currency updates, on more than 50 countries, while the
Diversions section offers sports, crosswords and quizzes, along with
Infrequently Asked Questions.
