SeattleWeekly News Bio
The SeattleWeekly newspaper is one of the three most well-read newspaper
in Seattle as it enjoys a very large circulation of 100,000.
It is a young newspaper that came out in March 1976, by Darrell Oldham
and David Brewster, but under the initial name of The Weekly.
Ever since its foundation, the SeattleWeekly has changed several owners
such as: Sasquatch Publishing between 1976 and 1997, Stern Publishing
from 1997 to 2000, when it came to the property of its present owners.
The SeattleWeekly tabloid is currently belonging to Village Voice
Media, Phoenix that also owns the Village Voice and other papers distributed
free of charge on a weekly basis.
In July 2006, the SeattleWeekly was said to go through a rough period
after its famous editor-in-chief Knute Berger left the paper. The move
didn’t go unnoticed by the SeattleWeekly’s competitors
that tried to speculate on the new direction in the tabloid editing
policy.
