Furthermore, Columnist Lippmann will also write 26 columns a year for Newsweek, which the Post bought in 1961. Newsweek's political coloration is best described as neutral grey. Columnist Lippmann will also continue to appear in the Herald Tribune-as well as 200-odd other papers of every political...
