How this endpoint behaves
Query parameter: url is a canonical HTTPS usmagazine.com article URL in the form /<section>/news/<slug>/ (for example https://www.usmagazine.com/celebrity-news/news/example-article-slug/). Photo-gallery URLs (/<section>/pictures/...) and non-article pages return a 400 invalid-parameter error.
Returns public metadata (title, description, publish/update time, section, authors, image) and the body paragraphs. Body paragraphs are the article's running text; sub-headings, embedded video, related-story links, newsletter and product-card widgets are omitted. Us Weekly articles are not paywalled.
