Set aside a morning each week to read through The Economist. Skim the headlines online every morning while I have my coffee, and read the stories I’m interested in, and those that relate to the bigger stories and regions I’m following. Try to ignore the details of the rest, since after all, you can’t know everything about everything. Subscribe to podcasts and listen to them when I walk places. Download video podcasts to watch, like Anderson Cooper 360, for those rare times I take the bus or train somewhere, like into London. Listen to the BBC World Service while I get ready in the morning. Skim through other newspapers and news magazines, particularly The New Statesman and Atlantic Monthly, whenever I get the chance, like when I’m just pissing around in Borders or take a break while studying in one of the bookstore cafes. Eat lunch in or spend those brief breaks I get in the HCR reading the papers, focusing on the comments and opinions sections.
