About the author

Rob Orchard, Christian Tate and Marcus Webb are the co-founders of The Slow Journalism Company, publishers of Delayed Gratification, the world’s first magazine dedicated to Slow Journalism. Launched in 2011 as an antidote to a kneejerk news cycle that prioritises speed over depth, detail and context, it has gone on to attract media praise and subscribers from around the globe. Each issue returns to the events of the quarter after the dust has settled to tell the stories the rest of the media has missed – or mistold. Leading an award-winning team of international journalists, editors Rob and Marcus conduct on-the-groundreporting, interview experts and crunch through vast data sets to capture illuminating truths on subjects as varied as the prospects of cold fusion and the politics of the Eurovision song contest.
