I like economic newspapers more than regular ones. That's because both good and bad news attracts eyeballs among those interested in economic investments; hence economic newspapers are colder, and less incentivized to prop up the drama.
E.g., if the unemployment rate goes up, regular newspapers will present it like an apocalypse is coming, but they are mostly silent when it goes down, even if it's one of the 2 leading indicators predicting the economic crisis is over.
