Following its split from IBT last October, Newsweek was set with the task of reasserting itself as a trusted, independent news and culture source. The publication is now owned by Jonathan Davis and Dev Pragad.
“We are building on the 85 years heritage of Newsweek and the authenticity that is inherent in the brand,” Pragad told Publishers Daily. “Newsweek today is a completely standalone entity, and we are not focused on any of the affiliations that Newsweek had in the past — IBT, Daily Beast or The Washington Post.”
