The Economist

Founded in 1843, The Economist is a globally recognized media organization known for its distinctive, analytical journalism and advocacy of classical liberalism, free trade, and globalisation. It operates as a weekly newspaper (in a magazine format) and a digital content provider, offering authoritative insight and opinion on international news, politics, economics, and culture. The company's mission is to take part in "a severe contest between intelligence, which presses forward, and an unworthy, timid ignorance obstructing our progress." It is owned by The Economist Group.
