Newsweek's Comeback

Almost three years ago, I wrote about how my family had ended our longtime subscription to Newsweek (link). I made the point that "over the years, and particularly over the last few years, the news coverage has seriously deteriorated."

It seems the people at Newsweek have been poking around the Hirhurim archives because the Wall Street Journal recently reported (link) that Newsweek is radically changing its approach by "increasing the quotient of serious news." Hirhurim speaks and Newsweek listens. We'll see how they do on this change.
