A weekly magazine that reports on current events and news stories from around the world.
Compound word from 'news' (new information) plus 'week' (seven-day period). Created in 1933 as a specific brand name for a publication designed to summarize the week's events.
Newsweek was designed to compete with Time magazine by offering the week's stories in one convenient package—it's basically the grandfather of the 'news digest' format you see online today.
