Newsweek Editor in Talks to Co-Host PBS Show

The New York Times reported on March 9, 2010:

"The Pulitzer Prize-winning editor of Newsweek, Jon Meacham, is negotiating to add a television job to his schedule. He is in final talks to be the co-host of a new PBS Friday night public affairs series called “Need to Know,” said several executives with knowledge of the production who declined to be named because the contracts had not been signed.

The co-anchor for the program, which begins May 7 at 8:30 p.m., is expected to be Alison Stewart, formerly of NPR’s short-lived “The Bryant Park Project” morning show and, before that, anchor of MSNBC’s “The Most.”

The new series, which will be an extension of a PBS web site with the same name, replaces “Bill Moyers Journal” and “Now.” It will be produced for PBS by New York’s WNET.org, from a new street-side studio at Lincoln Center."

Obama Will Write Newsweek Cover Story on Haiti and Earthquake

The Wall Street Journal/Washington Wire reported on January 14, 2010:

"Like at a lot of publications, Newsweek was forced to start its week over when the earthquake hit Haiti.

Give the magazine credit for an artful recovery. The Washington Post Co.-owned publication has tapped President Barack Obama to pen a cover story on Haiti for the Jan. 25 issue hitting newsstands on Monday.

Newsweek was readying a story about the Google-China row when the earthquake hit. Editor Jon Meacham scrapped his plans and hit the phones in search of the highest authority he could find to weigh in, according to a person familiar with the matter. He reached David Axelrod, senior adviser to Obama, who asked his boss if he was game.

Getting Obama to write an essay about the Haiti tragedy is a coup for the struggling magazine and aligns squarely with its new strategy. Newsweek lost $25 million in the first half of 2009, and the Post Co. last year reinvented the magazine, cutting its staff and shifting its focus from news reporting to commentary."

Newsweek's White House Correspondent Takes Buyout Offer, Politico's Michael Calderone reported on November 27, 2009:

"Holly Bailey, White House correspondent for Newsweek, is leaving the magazine.

When reached by e-mail, Bailey confirmed the news but declined to speak further.

Given Newsweek’s redirection this year to more opinion, analysis and provocative ideas pieces, the move raises questions about the magazine's commitment to reporting in Washington.

Newsweek still covers daily news out of Washington. But there has been a shift at the print magazine, with less emphasis on reporting day stories out of the capital. Already, the magazine doesn't go on most foreign trips with the president, such as the recent one to Asia.

It's unclear where Bailey heads next. At this point, her Twitter bio only reads: "The Artist Formerly Known as WH Corresp for Newsweek."
