Unlike articles before 2013, Newsweek articles since 2013 are not generally reliable. From 2013 to 2018, Newsweek was owned and operated by IBT Media, the parent company of International Business Times. IBT Media introduced a number of bad practices to the once reputable magazine and mainly focused on clickbait headlines over quality journalism. Its current relationship with IBT Media is unclear, and Newsweek's quality has not returned to its status prior to the 2013 purchase. Many editors have noted that there are several exceptions to this standard, so consensus is to evaluate Newsweek content on a case-by-case basis. In addition, as of April 2024, Newsweek has disclosed that they make use of AI assistance to write articles. See also: Newsweek (pre-2013).

Which means that it shows up as a source at DU all the time.

MSN is an indiscriminate news aggregator. It pulls in stuff from all kinds of suspect sources, like Newsweek, or clickbait sites, like Raw Story. It keeps showing up at DU as a news source. It should not be considered a trustworthy news source for DU.
