Economist is top tier

likesmart

I don't think your source of news really has anything to do with your ability to be benevolent, respected, honest, respected, or a leader.

That said, the WSJ is my #1 source of news.

reading habits have nothing to do with one’s character

Both are great for news. Economist is centrist or a slight left lean opinion pieces. WSJ has a strong right lean on opinion

like

Used to like the Economist earlier but off late they’ve become very left leaning and not as objective they used to be

like

Anti-trump and promoting smart environmental policy isn’t “left”, it’s rational. I’ve been a subscriber for 15 years and The Economist hasn’t drifted, but the political fringes have.

I think I’m doing great, but that depends on the day and who I work with (no other writers by the way).

Big 4 firms are extremely risk averse. It obviously depends on the infraction but this considerably decreases your viability as a candidate, especially if it is for inappropriate behavior or financial malfeasance.
