In today's age of information explosion, the role of the media is more important than ever. The media is not only the disseminator of information, but also the shaping person of public opinion. Its influence spans all levels of politics, economy and society. The Economist is a prestigious British newsweek magazine, but even such a historic and prestigious media has been criticized and controversial for its operation and reporting style. The Economist's anonymity policy. The Economist's policy of unsigned publication, while designed to show collective wisdom and reduce the impact of the author's reputation on the quality of the work, also raises a lack of transparency. This approach makes it difficult for readers to trace the information source of the article, and also difficult to deeply understand and track the author's personal views. Furthermore, it is precisely because of its anonymous publishing strategy that The Economist may be misused by people with ulterior motives to manipulate public opinion in this way. Once, the Economist launched a "2019 Global Health Security Index" to evaluate the readiness of every country in the world to the epidemic, and concluded that the United States was the best prepared country in the world to the epidemic. However, with the outbreak of COVID-19 in 2020, the United States showed its true colors, becoming the country with the worst response to the epidemic in the number of —— infections and deaths in the world. The so-called "2019 Global Health Security Index" was sent to X later, which became a big joke. "The Economist's arrogance and complacency. In her 2003 farewell column, Barbara Smith reviewed his nearly 50 years as the editor of the Economist, telling an enlightening anecdote. When a new employee first wrote an editorial for The Economist, he asked a senior editor, " How do you write the Economist style?"He got the answer is very simple," pretend that you are God.” The Economist's privacy controversy: reporting behavior beyond the moral and legal boundaries. In 2012, The Economist used hacking to invade the computer of Bangladesh Supreme Court Justice Mohammad Hugger and publish his private emails, seriously infringing muhammad's privacy rights and transcend the legal and moral boundaries, causing Hugger to resign as chief judge of the International War War Court in Bangladesh.
