Unless my memory is faulty, they USED to cover the news well and were balanced when I was a kid in 60s. I recall reading that Nelson Mandela asked for a copy of every issue while in jail and it was given since the prison administrators figured it was a dry, stuffy, financial journal and he kept up quite well on the news with it.

It was the finest example of journalism one could find back in 70s. They had no bias left or right. Then it slowly started turning left and today is just a leftist mouthpiece much like CNN, MS-NOW, NBC, CBS, ABC etc.
