Today they decided to become a propaganda outlet for the trump regime and I canceled my economist subscriptions in their entirety. He has never been brave, and you have been brainwashed. Shameful reporting.
Listening to this episode today and the guest can’t help but try and sneak in the lie about the people “suffering” under Hugo Chavez. A man who reduced poverty more than anybody in the history of their country and was extremely popular. The economist is and always will be western propaganda. Perhaps the people of Venezuela would have been better off if the Bank of England hadn’t stolen their gold reserves. Interesting how they just gloss over all the US sanctions too, which have crippled the cou... more
Why do paying subscribers need to sit through long ads? Why are we paying this is ridiculous, I have not listened to the intelligence or weekend for 2 years because of this, came back and same BS ads for paying customers. Abuse us when it’s free not when we are giving you money!
I used to be a regular subscriber of the economist and read the publications in print regularly.

This podcast is nothing like that, it’s focused on attacking America and the decisions it makes almost every episode. facts be damned! The bias is clear and for someone that just wants a quick objective view of the world events daily, this is failing. Especially the episode where you called De Niro... more
I listen to The Intelligence regularly and enjoy the reporting and factual journalism. What I do not enjoy is hearing political advertising especially pro Trump propaganda that is most definitely NOT factual.
