Newsweek: Why do I read it?

Newsweek is an American publication. I am Norwegian. I read Newsweek cover to cover every week. Why, you ask? I did, too. Here are some answers:
1. At work, we get ONE subscription for a newspaper / publication. So, it's free.
[not good enough, I could easily have gone with a Norwegian publication]
2. Newsweek has a European branch / edition. The one I subscribe has a European focus.
[still a lot of US only stuff like Obama, McCain]
3. It's interesting.
4. I pay attention to mainly world affairs.
5. I can opt out of articles, but only after having read more than 50% (a little promise I made to myself)
The part about Newsweek being interesting is my main argument. In-depth articles that give an interesting angle on certain issues every week and I learn a lot of things I didn't know. Which I can use in discussions :)

Read the guardian weekly for almost the same reason. Normal newspapers really have too little actual news
