Why Is Newsweek Magazine Thin This Week?

The postal person delivered the mail this afternoon, and since I was outside brought the load directly to me. I was happy to see that among everything else the latest edition of Newsweek had arrived. As I glanced at it I thought it seemed somehow smaller, with fewer pages than usual. How could that be I thought as I glanced at the top of the magazine and noticed in dark letters “Summer Double Issue”? A double issue that is so thin! It was then I noticed splashed on the cover “What Bush Got Right” by Fareed Zakaria. Now I know why the magazine is so thin!
