Alternative press
posted by admin in UncategorizedThe alternative press consists of printed publications that provide a different or dissident viewpoint than that provided by major mainstream and corporate newspapers, magazines, and other print media. As long as there have been mass media there have been alternative media, and the alternative press is a subset of them.
The alternative press often engages in advocacy journalism and frequently promotes specific political views. See for example the lists at alternative press (U.S. political left) and alternative press (U.S. political right).
In the United States, there are a number of alternative newspapers such as the Village Voice in New York, the Metro Times in Detroit, The Boston Phoenix , The Chicago Reader, and the Knoxville Voice.
