THE WEEK Media Kit

ALL YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT EVERYTHING THAT MATTERS

THE WEEK is a spirited newsweekly that distills the best of news, opinion, and ideas from the U.S. and international media. It's smart, incisive, wry.

Every week, THE WEEK's editors scour hundreds of newspapers, magazines, and Web sites (U.S. and foreign), searching for the most intriguing stories and the most thoughtful commentary—left, right, and everything in between. Covering the entire political waterfront. The best of what they find gets reported—concise, intelligent, crisp.

THE WEEK's format is straightforward yet information-packed. Its focus is broad: U.S. and international news, the best opinion columns from here and abroad, health and science, books, film, the arts, leisure activities. Besides bringing readers up to date on the world scene, THE WEEK reports on what the smartest people are saying about it.

Reading THE WEEK
Cover-to-cover in under 90 minutes

It's a fast read, and that's a good thing. THE WEEK's readers actually read the magazine cover-to-cover each week. It's designed that way.

Common-sense style and no jump edit give THE WEEK its fast-paced flow. Easy-access blurbs and insets accompany the in-depth pieces. Nothing gets more ink than it warrants; no story is too small.

Fifty percent of the edit focuses on reporting on the news-big issues and big opinions. Arts, leisure, and business get the other 50 percent. Things overlap, of course.

FROM THE MAGAZINE

Good week for: Riding bareback, after men and women roped steers, wrestled cattle, and put hot-pink undies on an uncooperative goat at Philadelphia’s first gay rodeo. “This proves that we are normal,” said Jen Vrana, president of the Liberty Gay Rodeo Association.

Bad week for: JetBlue, which is being sued for $2 million by a New York man who says he was ordered to give up his seat to a flight attendant and sit on a toilet through most of a flight from San Diego to New York. Gokhan Mutlu says being “imprisoned” in the bathroom for hours left him “disgraced, degraded, and shocked beyond belief.”
