Most of the information I've used to discuss the Anglo Disease, peak oil, the real estate bubble, etc... came from the FT and the WSJ.

The information was there, and a lot of warnings were made pretty explicitly. The problem is that these warnings rarely made headlines, and were certainly not incorporated into the "common wisdom" discourse that otherwise permeated editorials and background context for other articles.

So they were not very visible. But if you read these papers while aware of their biases, all the info was there, in excruciating detail.
