Description
Paco LaChoy, a one-man newspaper publisher, concludes his thirty-three-year journey with The Reno Gay Page, filling a void in LGBTQ news coverage in northern Nevada. His love for journalism, sparked by his journalist mom, led him to launch various papers, including The Reno Gay Page, which covered significant events often overlooked by others. Despite challenges like printing costs and recessions, LaChoy persevered, balancing his work with hotel jobs and relying on friends for occasional help. Now in Enid, Oklahoma, he finds a supportive local pride scene and is celebrated by northern Nevadans for his extraordinary, ordinary work.
