weekly journal
A periodical, magazine, or journal that is published once a week.
Er liest regelmäßig eine politische Wochenschrift, um über das aktuelle Geschehen informiert zu sein.
He regularly reads a political weekly journal to stay informed about current events.
The word is clearly made up of 'die Woche' (the week; here in the plural form 'Wochen') and 'die Schrift' (writing/publication). So it refers to a written work or publication that appears weekly.
Diese wissenschaftliche Wochenschrift informiert über neue Forschungsergebnisse.
This scientific weekly journal provides information about new research findings.
The word follows a pattern for publications. Similar formations are 'die Monatsschrift' (published monthly) or 'die Jahresschrift' (published yearly). The first part of the word always indicates the publication schedule.
Der Verein publiziert eine kleine Monatsschrift für seine Mitglieder.

Typical verbs used with 'Wochenschrift' (weekly journal) are 'lesen' (to read), 'abonnieren' (to subscribe to), 'herausgeben' (to publish), or 'veröffentlichen' (to publish/release).
Ich habe die Wochenschrift seit drei Jahren abonniert.

'Zeitung' and 'Wochenschrift' can both appear regularly and contain texts on current topics. The difference is mainly in the type of publication and how often it appears. A 'Zeitung' often appears daily or several times a week and reports especially on current news. A 'Wochenschrift' appears once a week and is more like a periodical, magazine, or journal. Learners may confuse the words because both can be read in print or digitally. In everyday language, 'Zeitung' is much more general and natural; 'Wochenschrift' sounds more specific and fits better with magazines or specialist publications.
Die Wochenschrift erscheint jeden Freitag und enthält viele Artikel über Politik und Kultur.
