U.S. News and World Report is a major American news magazine. It has a more terse, less feature-oriented style than its major competitors, Time and Newsweek, and is considered to have a more conservative editorial style.

Its earliest predecessor, United States News was founded in 1933 by journalist David Lawrence. He formed World Report in 1939 and merged the two in 1948.

From 1962 to 1984, U.S. News was employee-owned. Mortimer Zuckerman then bought it and became the publisher. He is also chairman of the New York Daily News.
