You’d hate this brilliant publication – Delayed Gratification – It’s non-partisan, independent, intelligent, investigative journalism. But you stick to your clickbait and fake news. Slow Journalism Matters! @dgquarterly pic.twitter.com/pZs0Tusosx

This arrived earlier, I can’t recommend it enough. I’ve trimmed back all my print magazine reading to this, but it is a beautiful thing to read and look at, poignant and objective with the benefit of time for reflecting on wider news. And ad-free/reader funded!???????? @dgquarterly https://t.co/xH4Z26AHXH

Term (finally) over, and look what was waiting for me when I got home… the perfect way to pause, revisit the news from a few months ago, enjoy the beautiful graphics and switch off from the Twitter timeline. @dgquarterly pic.twitter.com/38EjRbp7Ov

Yeah my latest edition of #delayedgratification has just arrived. Always wonderful to return to events of the quarter after the dust has settled and read the stories others have missed or mistold #slowjournalism .@dgquarterly pic.twitter.com/VXqg2eLxuq

What the media say
A slower, more reflective type of journalism”
Jam-packed with information... a counterpoint to the speedy news feeds we've grown accustomed to”
A leisurely (and contrary) look backwards over the previous three months”
Quality, intelligence and inspiration: the trilogy that drives the makers of Delayed Gratification”
Refreshing... parries the rush of 24-hour news with 'slow journalism'”
A very cool magazine... It's like if Greenland Sharks made a newspaper”
The UK's second-best magazine” Ian Hislop
Editor, Private Eye
Perhaps we could all get used to this Delayed idea...”
