Meacham Blindsided by 'Newsweek' Sale, But Ready to "Try" to Make It Work

Editor Jon Meacham talks to the Observer about the sale of Newsweek: “We have to figure out what journalism is going to be as the old business model collapses all around us. And I want to be — I want to try to be — a part of that undertaking. Will it work? Who the hell knows. But I’m at least going to look at this.” He did not exactly go on to reveal a business plan. Also, he is not returning his voicemails from billionaires. We know you’ve had a busy morning, Jon, but it’s not 1985, buddy!
