'New' Newsweek Released! Still Sucks

Newsweek was bought out by the Daily Beast after its circulation plummeted over the last decade. Newsweek has been well-known for its soft-news reporting and liberal slant and now has a chance to redeem itself as a legitimate piece of journalism.

Or not.

The new iteration of the magazine was unveiled recently, and unless my eyes deceive me, I see no major improvements. Or have heard of them.

Newsweek, the 77-year-old magazine that fought neck and neck for decades with Time magazine for dominance in the once-lucrative news-weekly magazine market, has struggled financially in recent years along with many other once-dominant publications.
Well, that settles that.

    Newsweek is a passing fad. Established papers such as the Washington Post, the New York Times, the Wall Street Journal and USA Today will never disappear - Newsweek should and will, unless they adopt a Conservative, or at least a balanced view.
