Welcome to Slate’s weekly news quiz. It’s Friday, which means it’s time to test your knowledge of the week’s news events. Your host, Ray Hamel, has concocted questions on news topics ranging from politics to business, from culture to sports to science. At the end of the quiz, you’ll be able to compare your score with that of the average contestant, as well as with the score of a Slatester who has agreed to take the quiz on the record. This week’s contestant is staff writer Heather Schwedel.
Can you ace the quiz and beat Schwedel? Good luck!
The music world sadly lost Gary Wright, Jimmy Buffett, and Smash Mouth lead singer Steve Harwell this week. But the everlasting Rolling Stones, with three members born in the same decade as Joe Biden, are back with their first new album in 18 years. The heart of rock and roll is still beating in the Slate News Quiz.
