Anchorage Press Reborn with Alt-Weekly Edge | Anchorage News

Published 1 week, 5 days ago
Description

The Anchorage Press is roaring back after shutting down in 2022, thanks to new owners Veri di Suvero and Nat Herz, backed by Seattle’s Noisy Creek. They’re reviving the paper’s iconic 90s alternative spirit—with investigative journalism, quirky features like missed connections, and a bold platform for diverse voices. This isn’t just nostalgia; it’s a smart, multi-pronged business model blending subscriptions, memberships, live events, and digital ads to survive in today’s media chaos. They’re blending edgy charm with serious reporting, offering a refreshing counterpoint to mainstream news. With over 130 community members ready to contribute or volunteer, the revival feels grassroots and urgent. Print editions could hit newsstands as early as September 2024—with a firm goal before the end of 2026. This is more than a newspaper comeback—it’s a community-driven renaissance.
