I thought they had a buyer as of last week? 

I was a longtime subscriber but bailed last year due to its move from hard news

I'm thinking that they will have just a skeleton crew if they go online only. 
There's not as much money in online even for a seasoned player like Newsweek.

They all are guilty of picking stories that would be better suited for USA
Today than their front page /covers. I couldn't believe it when I saw Ice
