U.S. News & World Report was once the publisher of a print news magazine of the same name; today its content is available online only, with special printed issues. USNews.com focuses on topics such as politics and policy, education, and health. In recent years the company has found more luck in print with its signature
America's Best
annual series of books that ranks institutions and services such as colleges, hospitals, and mutual funds. The magazine was founded in 1933 as
United States News
. Real estate and media tycoon Mort Zuckerman (co-owner of the
New York Daily News
) has owned the company since 1984.
Strategy
The company has shifted its revenue model to focus on digital advertising sales and sales of its rankings guides. In addition, it is expanding its
US News Weekly
website -- which has channels including Politics & Policy, Education, Money, Health, Autos, and Travel -- to digital readers, such as the iPad and Android tablets.
