Who is behind Newsweek?

[Skidmore]

2. In my high school "Current Affairs" class during the late 60s, Newsweek was the go to

resource magazine for initiating discussions of what was happening in the world. From there, we would spend each week researching for information regarding its top stories by examining articles in other print sources and media. Mind you, this was before cable and there were only three broacast channels plus PBS on the teevee. And radio stations, which were not talk radio but extensions of the broadcast media of the television news. And we were encouraged to access the history section of the library too.

For the younger set, computers and the intertubes were not anywhere close to being a viable technology for personal use. My first experience using computers was to take a course in BASIC in university and punch out cards on a machine the size of a washing machine. Cards went to the "In" bin to be processed and picked up a week later. If you screwed up data entry, it would set you back another week to get results. Sad how communications has become so much easier yet eroded so much. So much garbage in.
