This is why I subscribe to @dgquarterly. Considered news coverage, with plenty of "how did we get here" and a dollop of "what happened next".

The latest issue of @dgquarterly has landed and, as always, the infographics are amazing. Here they look the first official world records in athletics v. today’s. Great stuff. pic.twitter.com/CdTpqHnjJO

…and even if you don’t read the interview, check out @dgquarterly regardless. All the news, zoomed out by three months, so you know that if you’re reading it, it matters. Gorgeous design too.

‘Please ensure that all future editions of your magnificent magazine are redirected forthwith, cos I would be truly gutted if my regular fix of slow journalism turned into no journalism!’
– Robert S, subscriber
Highly recommend @dgquarterly. Continually brilliant magazine and an example of why great journalism takes time. pic.twitter.com/cOnpNhYRmg

The Saddam Supergun story in @dgquarterly is worth the price of admission alone. The bible of slow journalism proves consistently that magazines that make best use of their canvas can have an almost visceral impact on the reader.

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

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...”
