Shout Out to the Economist

[lasvegasreb]

Can this newspaper get a shout out? Yes, it can. It's expensive, but, man, is it worth it! I would highly consider visiting their site -- economist.com -- and ponying up the $130 bucks or whatever it is normally to subscribe a year.

If you subscribe to Newsweek, US News, et. all, you can just cancel them and use that money to subscribe to the Economist. It's old-school liberal -- when that used to stand for inquisitive minds -- and it is fiscally conservative.

Their writers don't use bylines -- no egos, etc. -- they just speak for the newspaper. And don't take my word for it, it's probably the most reputable newspaper in the world, bar none.

Let's face it, if George spent some time reading it AND following their suggestions, the world would be a lot better off.

Agreed 100%. They are not afraid to criticize Israel or W. That and WSJ comprise all the news I need.

It is indispensible. A blessing.

Agreed. I love The Economist.

What's GWB hiding behind that magazine, I wonder?

When I was at university, you could subscribe to the magazine for the equivalent of about $40. Gotta love those special offers. It is also good because when you subscribe you can access everything on their website also, including articles from back issues.
