What is the difference between “newest” and “latest”?

I am not quite clear about them. I always guess that they are the same.

This Website shows the ____ markdowns of products.

It is the ____ news on media.

Which one I should use?

Thank you.

I see your point. Late means dead as well as being behind time. On the other hand, the latest (last) thing to happen is also, by definition, the newest. So in this sense the words are interchangeable.
