On: How Exercise May Help the Memory Grow Stronger

I keep seeing comments like this about NYT and I truly don’t understand where they’re coming from. And I don’t mean that in a dismissive way, I’m genuinely curious. Yes, the Economist and the New Yorker often have better writing, but their authors also have far laxer deadlines. What is the better alternative to the journalism of the likes of NYT that I am apparently missing? (I’m referring to English-language dailies here, but it doesn’t have to be US based).

There is only so much trump news one can read.

I think HN is a good alternative to any online news site.

I'm a big fan of the Financial Times, but if you're not as in to the finance/business stuff then it may not be worth it for you.

I do think that more people should pay for news (the turning point for me was Brexit).
