Is there a weekly magazine you should have on your reading list?

Yes.  And I will tell you which one.

Hi, everyone. John daly here. With some more informed not inflamed.

I have another news finding tip for you. In a previous podcast we talked about setting up your Twitter news feed.

This is one of the publications that should be in in it.

It’s a weekly magazine called the Economist.

I have been reading this magazine since the early 1980s. I have no affiliate agreement with the Economist so you can rest assured I’m telling you this based on what I Believe.

If there is a weekly publication you must have, then this is it.

The economist covers a number of points of view.

They have a right leaning point of view towards business. But they also have a liberal social bias that you would see primarily in Western Europe.

There is also a libertarian Strain at various times that pushes for smaller and smarter government.

There’s a couple things I really enjoy about reading the Economist.

The first is they do offer opinions. But they do it the right way.  Not the cable news way.

They present the opinions by bringing out both sides equally and then telling you why they sided with one side or the other. Novel concept huh?

The second benefit is that they cover America from a strictly objective point of view. For the most part, they are not intertwined with one party or the other.

I feel when I read a report from the economist I’m getting a full picture of an issue.

The third benefit is if you get the Economist on your smart phone, each story can be listened to as an audio file. It’s great for working out, walking the dog, traveling long-distances.
