In Britain, the weeklies are doing better than ok - The Economist, Spectator, Private Eye - all venerable in their own ways. There seems to be an appetite for what I’d call explainer media - a chance to stand back and make sense of the hurly burly. That’s why weekend editions are sustaining newspapers- just. It’s why blogs and podcasts thrive. And this is long-form.

Very true, alongside monthly print incomer Byline Times which is very much in the explainer media mode. Mainly online with the monthly print round-up, and a most satisfying read.
