Newsweek is in a really weird space right now, they aren’t WHOLLY unreliable like a New York Post or Daily Mail, but they definitely seem to be sliding that way.
They were always 2nd tier compared to a Time Magazine or U.S. News and World Report, but not unreliable.
That seems to have changed in 2018 when Dev Pragad and Johnathan Davis took over.
“Newsweek believes that AI tools can help journalists work faster, smarter and more creatively,” reads the updated standards page. “We firmly believe that soon all journalists will be working with AI in some form and we want our newsroom to embrace these technologies as quickly as is possible in an ethical way.”
My prediction is, within 2 years, Newsweek will officially become AI slop and can be safely disregarded as a valid source.
I removed the other one, it had no engagement.
Thank you. I noticed that more and more people are becoming unhappy with Newsweek.
Gee I wonder whose alt this is

I think you’re right.
