Scanning System
Generalist Sources
Scan a daily newspaper. Recommendation: any U.S. publication over 1 million in circulation
USA Today
New York Times
Los Angeles Times
Wall Street Journal
Scan a newsmagazine weekly. Our recommendations:
Economist (best of the pack by far. Written from a global perspective)
U.S. News & World Report (probably the least slanted of the alternatives)
Time, Newsweek (if you must)
Scan a business magazine once per month. Our recommendations:
Fortune (neck and neck with Forbes)
Forbes (Scan, don't read cover to cover)
Business 2.0 (The "new economy" and best table of contents layout going)
Eclectic, Future-oriented Sources
Futurist (publication of the World Future Society. Newly improved.)
Fast Company (all about the future of business, excellent)
Wired (sometimes too hip but jarring in its writing, on the edge)
American Demographics (future oriented, best look at the American marketplace)
Use online sources. Reason: convenience, search engines, portability.
