I agree.  I have been subscribing to both for a while now, and I always
read SN soon after receiving it, while it may take me a few weeks to
get around to an issue of SA.  Science news has good brief writeups of
important news in science which are very timely and seem to be quite
accurate.  I also see the same news items in the popular press sometime
later in garbled form.
