I was drawn to these pieces because I thought they provided insights that I would not get on the job or from my other news sources. I also felt that these topics were the most concrete, and thus easier for me to wrap my head around, and were presented in list/graphic/short form that was easier for me to digest than long-form writing. Furthermore, I felt that these specific topics concisely analyzed the big picture of deeper trends, which is very valuable to me as a reader.
