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 that of a Slatester who has agreed to take the quiz on the record. This week’s contestant is senior producer Cheyna Roth.
Can you ace the quiz and beat Roth? Good luck!
