YOU WOULDN’T expect the serious heads at The Economist to include a David Bowie tribute in the magazine, but they did, in their own subtle way. 

Financial Times journalist David Allen Green tweeted pictures of two pages from this week’s issue – and if you look carefully, you’ll see a message hidden in the pages.
