NPR News Quiz: Epstein Files, Senate Drama and Grammy Chaos

Each week, NPR holds up a small mirror to the news cycle and asks a quiet but pointed question: were you truly present, or merely nearby? This week's quiz drew from a remarkable range of human drama — legal documents with strange logistics, legislative dysfunction, and the perennial theater of music's biggest night — reminding us that attention is itself a civic practice. The ritual of the news quiz is less about winning than about the discipline of noticing, of refusing to let the week dissolve into undifferentiated noise.
