Confirmed. It looks like The Economist has made some major changes -- I don't have the time to take this on in the next couple of days, but the scrape routine will need to be rewritten. The new design looks to be rather simple to scrape -- I'd be happy to see someone else take this before I get back to it.

  • Resolution set to fixed
  • Status changed from new to closed

Blogs and search are still broken, but single pages like this one were fixed back in October 2010. Closing-- this is not perfect, but it's not completely broken either.
