U.S. News Media Group Expands Premium Content on Amazon Kindle

Posted 2/27/09

Washington D.C. -- U.S. News Media Group, one of the nation’s leading sources of news analysis and service journalism, today announced that its newly released digital-only product U.S. News Weekly is now also available on Amazon Kindle.

Through this new distribution channel, content from U.S. News Weekly, a digital-only magazine that includes hard news reporting, insightful analysis, unique features and cutting-edge commentary, will be electronically delivered to Kindle users the same day it is published by U.S. News. Similar to the Kindle version of U.S.News & World Report magazine, Kindle users can subscribe and purchase individual issues of U.S. News Weekly.

Every week, the digital magazine will cover national and world news through the following sections: This Week in Washington, The Presidency column, Washington Whispers, Commentary and Opinion editorials, and rotating features including profiles of leading newsmakers, Pro/Con exchanges on hot-button issues, and Q&As with Washington's power brokers.

"While the media industry continues to debate fee-for payment options, we're moving forward to make our already successful paid and free products widely accessible to readers," said Brian Kelly, editor of U.S.News & World Report. "By providing U.S. News Weekly content on Amazon Kindle, it's easy for readers to receive the news analysis and in-depth reports they want. It's a timely, effective delivery platform that fits our fresh reporting and analysis."

U.S. News Weekly and U.S.News & World Report are currently offered through Amazon Kindle at www.amazon.com/kindlestore.
