Slow Journalism
THE PERSPECTIVE
The speed of the modern news agenda can leave you feeling constantly on the back foot. We go the other way and wait for three months to pass before returning to the news, picking out what really mattered and returning to events with the benefit of hindsight so we can give you the final analysis rather than a kneejerk reaction.
THE JOURNALISM
We invest in the best long-form, in-depth journalism in the world, accompanied by stunning images and photo features. To get a taste of what we do, head to our blog where you can read dozens of stories from past issues of Delayed Gratification for free and in full. Subscribers get exclusive access to a digital archive of all our back issues, stretching back to the first, published in January 2011..
THE UNIQUE STORIES
Did you hear the one about the Welsh terrorist who tried to blow up the Prince of Wales’s investiture? Or Saddam Hussein’s epic propaganda movie featuring Oliver Reed? Perhaps you’d be interested in a piece about the man trying to help young swimmers in Gaza reach the Olympics? Or the one about the intrepid treasure-hunters searching the seas for £125 billion in shipwrecked gold.
THE INFOGRAPHICS
Each issue of Delayed Gratification has lots of beautiful infographics, which we use to draw out patterns from the quarter and give new angles on stories. Check out some examples from the magazine here.
THE LOOK AND FEEL
Delayed Gratification is a beautiful, high quality publication with outstanding design and an original piece of artwork from an inspiring international artist on each cover – the likes of Shepard Fairey, Beatriz Milhazes, Grayson Perry and Ai Weiwei. We love print magazines and we work hard to make each issue of Delayed Gratification feel special. It even smells good.
