The Economist is a weekly news and international affairs publication owned by The Economist Newspaper Ltd edited in London, UK. It has been in continuous publication since September 1843.

From http://www.economist.com/help/DisplayHelp.cfm?folder=663377#About_The_Economist:- It is not only The Economist's name that people find baffling. Here are some other common questions. First, why does it call itself a newspaper? Even when The Economist incorporated the Bankers' Gazette and Railway Monitor from 1845 to 1932, it also described itself as "a political, literary and general newspaper". It still does so because, in addition to offering analysis and opinion, it tries in each issue to cover the main events—business and political—of the week. It goes to press on Thursdays and, printed simultaneously in six countries, is available in most of the world's main cities the following day or soon after. Readers everywhere get the same editorial matter. The advertisements differ. The running order of the sections, and sometimes the cover, also differ. But the words are the same, except that each week readers in Britain get a few extra pages devoted to British news."

lol @ all the hate... zOMG, there's an artist called "The Economist" and I don't like his music, I now must degrade his work, insult everyone that doesn't think the way I do, and ignore in my fit of rage the fact that there are hundreds of pages here on last.fm that refer to more than just one band/project! This is the cancer that is killing last.fm!!!

Hey tom_dissonance, dumbass, the description of this "band" is that of the news publication. Also if you read the other comments you'd notice that other people came here for news and not this joke for music. "Please remove" ears from shit that sucks and have a nice day!

I wish they would validate their claims more with at least a little bit of research.

ideogon - why not get it from the economist site then, instead of expecting business/world news to be streamable on a music site? "please remove" head from ass.
