A fanzine with news of interest to the community of sf fandom. Sercon newszines have news primarily of the professional community with fannish news sometimes thrown in for good measure; fannish newszines have news primarily of fandom with professional news sometimes thrown in for good measure.

There is also the convention newsletter which, though perhaps technically newszines, are best treated as a separate category. Clubzines likewise often contain a lot of news, but most are focused on the doings of a single club and are better thought of in that context.

4E tried to promote the term magazet but it didn’t take.
