Our family noticed The Economist turned into a vapid, center -eft rag about 10 years ago. We had been subscribers on and off for decades, but cancelled Now we ignore this Newsweek From London. Why pay for waht we can watch for free on CNNABCNBCCBSMSNBC?
Once upon a time, The Economist was a great read. No longer true.

I've had pretty much the same impression. When I was in college (some years ago) the Economist was a serious, tightly written journal of economic liberty. When I was offered a subscription a few years ago I jumped at the chance. I canceled the subscription after a couple of disappointing months of incessant Euro-weenie whining.

Same here. I had been an Economist subscriber for years and found it absolutely crucial back in my university days. They had been editorially creeping toward statism for a while, but I maintained a subscription primarily for their world news snippets until 2002. The Economist, like the majority of western Europe, completely came unhinged and collapsed under the weight of BDS.
