 Very Convenient August 6, 2004

The Washington Post is an excellent newspaper and this condensed weekly edition essentially allows one to read the highlights and the best or most important of the week's news. This is especially handy for people who do not live in the DC area who want access to one of the nation's most well respected papers without having to wade through the daily edition. I frequently travel so I often pick up a copy if I'm out of town for a week to catch up on the news.
Excellent weekly -- don't compare it to dailies November 27, 2001

Readers who seek a daily newspaper will be disappointed with the Washington Post Weekly Edition. Readers who are seeking a weekly news journal with great journalism and analysis will like it. It is much better for political journalism than Time, Newsweek, etc. I consider the content to have many of the same stellar qualities as the Christian Science Monitor (a small daily newspaper, but since it comes through the US Postal Service, you get it late, which is a significant disadvantage): really good analysis and really good writing, covering both the mainstream topics that lead the daily newspaper stories as well as good feature articles. It also has the same fine coverage of Washington politics found in the WP daily newspaper. (Not surprising, of course, but worth a mention.)The WP Weekly contains some articles that are digested from the daily Washington Post. Some of its content is unique to the WP Weekly. The result is a nice mix. Absent are what we used to call "death toll" articles when I did high school forensics -- the stories that give you an update, but do not focus on analysis. For some who seek daily news, this is a disadvantage. If you are looking for a good weekly overview, however, with high quality, at a reasonable price, I highly recommend the WP Weekly. It is a tremendous step up from the most weekly news magazines in the U.S.
Exceptional writing from the Capitol October 18, 2003

This weekly edition is perfect for those of us that don't want to shell out the several hundreds of dollars a year it would cost to get the daily print edition (those of us in Arizona). I subscribe to the daily internet version and this one, which gives you a good wrap-up of the prior week with the best of the best. Some people have complained about the time factor with when you receive it. To those people, I would like to introduce you to the internet. Strange as it may seem, you can access news that you need right away. Anyways, this is a great WRAP-UP of the previous week (something to remember) and is highly recommended to all that are considering subscriptions.

This is the best newspaper you can get. The one weekly issue is a distillation of the most important and most interesting national stories from the previous week, in a format free of advertising and filler. Highly recommended.
Excellent analysis November 26, 2003

I read this religiously. It puts other celebrity-centered newsweeklies like Newsweek and Time to shame. In depth articles of events and good feature stories.
