I got a subscription (annual I was told) during The Economist marketing campaign on the streets of NYC. It was in spring. Today i saw a charge on my credit card for $69. I called them. Apparently it's $69 per quarter. You can't cancel it online. They cancel it on the phone, but then don't give you any confirmation. And they say that email confirmation takes up to 48 hours do be delivered:)
So not only they are bias in their articles. They are also the worst example of liberalism - lies, lies, lies. Never again.
