Newsweek magazine to stop printing, go all-digital in 2013
NEW YORK,
OCT 18 - Newsweek
, the venerable U.S. weekly magazine covering current events, will publish its
final print edition on December 31 and move to an all-digital format early next

The
all-digital publication will be called Newsweek
Global and will be a single, worldwide edition, according to a post on the
Daily Beast web site.
It will be
subscription-based and available on e-readers for both tablet and the Internet,
with some content available on the Daily Beast web site, Tina Brown, editor in
chief of Newsweek
Daily Beast Co, and Baba Shetty, chief executive, said in their post.
