Used to be good.October 16, 2008 4 out of 4 found this review helpful
Newsweek used to be a pretty good, balenced magazine. Now it's about 60% ads 30% pictures and 10% "news" that always seem to be written like an editorial. Don't recommend anymore.

Have just cancelled my subscription after many years. Newsweek is no longer an objective news magazine.
A once great magazine is now not even worth a centOctober 4, 2008 4 out of 8 found this review helpful
As a former subscriber to the Newsweek, I must say in terms of graphics, photos and design it is basically a first rate publication. But when it comes to content, fairness and balance it is a partisan magazine deep in tank with the hard leftists of the world, especially inside the US. Unfortunately, I will not buy this magazine any more and instead I will be buying The Weekly Standard, Economist, Time and Canada's McLeans magazine. The Newsweek has turned into a podium for the Obama campaign and its mother company MSNBC and General Electric as a whole ought to be ashamed of the dismal performance of this once great magazine.

90% Off and worth every pennySeptember 24, 2008 4 out of 5 found this review helpful
I used to subscribe to both Newsweek and Times. I have dropped both. I came to realize that what I was getting was what the writer and editor thought I needed to know to come to the conclusion that they wanted.
On every occasion where I was familiar with the subject of their stories (a couple of times first hand knowledge) I found that significant facts were dropped if they interfered with the 'narrative'.
Right now they are offering a subscription for $20.00 which is 90% off. A good deal if you have $20 to waste. If they would discount the other 10% it would be fairly priced.
