Etymology
The term 'newsweekly' originated from the combination of 'news', derived from the Old French word 'novelles', meaning 'new things', and 'weekly', which relates to a period of seven days. The concept of a newsweekly emerged in the late 19th and early 20th centuries as the expansion of literacy and the availability of print media allowed for the rise of periodicals. Unlike daily newspapers, which provided immediate updates, newsweeklies gained popularity for their ability to offer more detailed analyses and background information on significant events. They catered to readers who sought a deeper understanding of the news rather than just headlines. Over the years, many notable newsweeklies, such as Time and Newsweek, have shaped public discourse and provided a lasting legacy in journalism.
