Newsweek Magazine Subscription

Pros: Good coverage of most major things, the occasional good investigative report, with additional goodies.

Cons: Sometimes misses a story, occasional bad reviews.

The Bottom Line: Newsweek is a great magazine, if you occasionally miss the newspaper or the network news, or if you don't. In my eyes, it narrowly beats its main competitor, Time.

Review: When you want a good news magazine, with added reviews, investigative reports, and a little light reading fun, then you have to basic choices: Time and Newsweek. This was my dilemma about fifteen months ago, and, believe me, the choice was not easy!...

Pros: good writing, concise, easy to read

Cons: none

The Bottom Line: Good weekly coverage of news. Good editorials and reporting on global/national issues. It has a slight liberal focus but is nonetheless balanced in its approach.

Review: I've been reading Newsweek for over 25 years and have been pleased with its reporting. Although the news may be a few days old by the time you read it, it is much more in depth than what we hear on the radio or watch on TV. In fact, I only listen to...

Pros: informative, well-written, and entertaining; covers a variety of topics

Cons: you're not going to agree with all the opinions expressed here

The Bottom Line: Newsweek is a great choice if you want to read about up-to-date news and current events on a weekly basis.

Review: I stumbled upon Newsweek while waiting at a doctor's office and became engrossed in an article on death row inmates in the state of Texas and how some evidence had been thrown out during their trials for various reasons. The point being that it may...

Review: ...The Mag Has Hit The Stand
How the mighty have fallen. Since forever, Newsweek has gone toe-to-toe with archrival Time Magazine in a rough neighborhood: Hard News. But the last few years have witnessed a sea-change at the...

Pros: Great overall coverage

Cons: It isn't free

Review: If I am to even consider picking up a news related magazine, it's always Newsweek. I single out newsweek for several good reasons. First off, it doesn't seem to go in-depth with 15+ page stories that no one really cares that much about. The articles...

Pros: Great Articles, Quick up date on issues

Cons: Occasionally stigmatizing

Review: I like Newsweek because their magazine offers up-to-date info on issues as they are occurring or just afterward. The coverage is excellent and has helped to keep me informed of issues I needed to know more information on.

Whether it be...

Pros: Useful, Informative

Cons: Too Much Advertising

Review: Newsweek keeps me up to date on what's happening in this country and around the world. When I get each issue I turn to the Top Of The Week page and can see in one glance the articles that are categorized into national, international, business,...

Pros: Occasionally informative

Cons: Lots of little things, nothing big

Review: Like many of today's periodicals, Newsweek caters to people multi-tasking or otherwise occupied. It provides screaming covers catering to someone browsing the grocery store rack. Recently, it has done several religious pieces, providing vague and...

Pros: Online availability, Cartoons

Cons: Poor choice of subject material, language

Review: Although I have read plenty of issues of Newsweek over the years and I think I will continue to pick up a issue or two once in a while, I must admit I like Time magazine much better.

Time is more judicious in the topics it covers, and it...
