Oil reaches a record price. The 2007 Nobel Prize winners are announced. Bhutto returns to Pakistan. Apple unveils a new product.

As headlines chase each other, how can you provide your readers with the insightful background they need to make sense of the news?

The Globalist's new feature series — Global Currents — provides the answer. In an engaging Q&A format, we present pivotal facts that contextualize each week’s biggest news event.

Presented as a veritable world tour, we offer your readers insights beyond the headlines — which is what they demand from a truly valuable news publication.

Better yet, rather than offering tired wire copy, our feature is a time-efficient way to present the global context of current events — so that you can focus your own reporting resources on the national, regional or local aspects of the story.

Depending on current events, we make our new feature available at a rate of about one installment per week.
