Newsweek API endpoint
Returns a Newsweek author profile by `slug` (for example `jennifer-fink`) or a newsweek.com authors `url`; supply exactly one. `page` selects the 1-based page of recent articles (default 1) and overrides any page in `url`. The response has `name`, `job_title`, `bio`, `email`, `image_url`, articles and `has_next_page`; a page past the end gives an empty `articles` list, not an error.
/newsweek/authorQuery parameters:
slug (optional): an author slug, e.g. jennifer-fink.url (optional): a canonical https://www.newsweek.com/authors/<slug> URL, optionally with a ?page=<n> query, as an alternative to slug. A URL that carries newsweek.com's own ?page=<n> query sets the page from that query.page (optional): 1-based page number of the author's article list; overrides any page number embedded in url. Defaults to 1.Exactly one of slug/url is required. has_next_page reports whether Newsweek's own pagination link indicates a further page exists; requesting past the last page returns an author page with an empty articles list rather than an error.
