Test your knowledge of this week’s big stories.
Want more quizzes? This one’s a first.
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 senior editor Rebecca Onion.
Can you ace the quiz and beat Onion? Good luck!
Just as the Foo Fighters prepare for a return to touring after the death of their drummer Taylor Hawkins, two more rock drummers died this week. Jeremiah Green of Modest Mouse was 45, and Fred White of Earth, Wind & Fire was 67. The beat goes on with the Slate News Quiz.
