Hacker News Reader

Same, it's been surface-level content for a loooong time.

I find Atlantic, Financial Times, CS Monitor far superior.

My family got Newsweek when I was growing up as well. I never did after I moved out, though, because I realized if I just read the content and skipped the ads I could read it cover to cover in about ten minutes.

And yeah, The Economist takes a lot longer to get through. But the advent of the web has been particularly hard on news magazines. I wonder how much longer even The Economist will be around.

I agree, it's sad though they did some groundbreaking coverage in the past. I thought that tablet based reading would help the media industry a lot more than it has to date.
