The economist BBC News The guardian

The Economist is wildly expensive for Profit that is basically a spokesperson magazine for the 1%.

They villify all welfare even if it is lifesaving for hunderds of thousands, but oppose any tiny tax increases on companies or rich people.

It really is the 1%โ€™s magazine. I really would not recommend OP to switch to that given they are looking for non-profit not corporatified sources.

My understanding is that the board is held in a trust format to ensure editorial independence. They often do advocate for policies that would be beneficisl for all, and not the 1%

Of late, both times they supported trumps opposition.

They are one of the few internationally respected organisations that actually have news outside Europe and America, that's not business news from Japan or china.

It may not be for you and every news source is biased in some way but I find it quite balanced.
