Biz: The Washington Post could sell Newsweek. We blame this cover.

  • It’s a rough time to be a weekly periodical. And with losses spanning over years, The Washington Post may be ready to let go of its main competitor to Time. Alas, poor Newsweek. You were like a younger brother to Time. We remember how we felt the first time we heard “Me and Julio Down By the Schoolyard” and heard your name mentioned in it. It made us proud. It wasn’t as cool as “On the Cover of the Rolling Stone,” but Paul Simon knew the score. source
