New York Press
|
The New York Press is the conservative alternative weekly competitor to the Village Voice in New York City. In the late 1990s the publication forced the Village Voice to become a free paper to compete.
Russ Smith founded the paper in 1988, editing it until 2004. He still contributes a column under the pseudonym Mugger.
It is now edited by Jeff Koyen and Alex Zaitchik. Matt Taibbi writes a weekly column on politics and current affairs.
Although generally conservative, the Press has run Alexander Cockburn's "Wild Justice" column. Gay activist Michelangelo Signorile is also a contributing columnist.
