I tried to load the website and I saw what you were talking about, the disappearing of the page.
I reloaded and stopped it from attempting to reload further and I was able to force the webpage to stay up for a while.
I looked into the browser's console to see what's going on. Apparently it's trying to load some additional stuff like ads and whatever else for the webpage, but they are getting a lot of 400, a few 403 errors and one, maybe two 404 errors.
400 simply means the URL is typed out wrong, or is the wrong URL and when the website is trying to read it, it can't understand what the URL is pointing the website to.
403 means the access to this page is forbidden as in they don't have the permission to access that webpage.
Apparently, Graphql is the main offender here and it looks like it generates queries for the Economist, I believe.
When I go to the Economist's website for Graphql, it opens up a sandbox interface where you can type in queries and such. On the upper right corner, it says, "Server cannot be reached", as you can see here:

404 means the page can't be found at all.

Either The Economist is having server problems or it's the archives.
I don't know but my analysis was done in 5 minutes so I may be wrong on some things.
Hope this helps!
