I was thinking of buying the Economist a couple of days ago since I'm running out of "flat back" reading material. But all the magazines are gone. First time I've been there since July because of illness (housebound).

"Flatback reading material" is a physical book or magazine -- I do a lot of reading in bed and I refuse to read stuff in bed on screen since that's supposed to be bad for sleep and other reasons (I get plenty of screen time when I'm up and about at the computer).

Anyway just an idle thought I had when Hartmann, near the end, said the media, other than the economic press, is hardly reporting on the evermore consolidation of corporations. And I was thinking, heck I can't even buy a single issue of the Economist.
