    Newsweek magazine moving to all digital issues

    It's just a matter of time before comics follow suit. It's a very sad trend.

    Then hold onto to your comics. They will become even more valuable!

        I think if Newsweek could roll back the clock about thirty years and regain that editorial style, they would do great today. The thing is, they've chucked news for opinion ages ago, and a lot of people that would be buying the magazine pass it by because they feel like they're being sold a perspective when they just want a deeper level of news daily papers can't provide. It's like Pepsi changing their recipe and when it tanks, assuming consumers just don't drink colas anymore, when the issue is the product.

          You're right, but I don't know how good it'd do since trading news for opinion.... or perhaps flavouring.... is what EVERYBODY did. Folks are climatized to getting exactly the type of information they want; providing something neutral and factual might not sit well with an audience unused to forming their own opinion. Plus, whoever was on the recieving end of any scrutiny would claim bias anyway.

          ....but you never know. It's been a while since we tried it that way.
