News Review

News Review was a British news magazine, first published by Cosmopolitan Press in 1936. Its publishers, who also launched Cavalcade around the same time, envisaged News Review as a competitor to the U.S. Time magazine. It was later sold to Odhams Press,[1] and ended its run by eventually being amalgamated into Odhams' Illustrated magazine in 1950.[2]

Writers for the News Review included Reg Freeson[3] and a young Peter Dacre.[4][5]
