I've been an avid reader of your magazine since I was in high school (I'm now 23). I didn't have access to Newsweek while living abroad this past year, so now I'm trying to catch up on the past couple of issues. However, I find this new print format a bit difficult to read - there's a lot of white space on the pages, and the layout of the articles makes them look like advertisements. Most troubling to me is that the hard news stories have lost their impact because the the page designs look less serious, even spacey. I appreciate your work to keep the magazine looking clean and efficient, but I think this layout design still needs a bit of tweaking. Otherwise, I like articles and columns as much as ever.
