I personally really like The Economist to get a good sense of what's going on globally.

I agree, though readers should be aware of their bias towards free-markets, liberal democracies and globalization.

What you said is broadly right, but it's always nuanced.

Yesterday they disavowed economists who are apologists for price-gouging on life-essential goods, such as masks, whose production cannot quickly respond to pricing signals.

I disagree that it's nuanced, it's very blatant. Listen to coverage involving Bernie Sanders before he dropped out to hear it. But as long as you realize it, it can still be informative.
