About Phoenix New Times:

Since its founding in 1970, New Times has kept the Valley of the Sun’s feet to the fire. The paper began as an aggressive, irascible alternative to the stuffy mainstream media, which attacked “hippies” just as it now belittles millennials. And thanks to its early commitment to digital journalism, New Times draws more than 1 million monthly active users to its website, phoenixnewtimes.com. They’re joined by more than 200,000 weekly print readers who consider the paper an unparalleled source of information and insight, from politics and business to music and the arts.

Along with its hard-hitting journalism, New Times produces some of Phoenix’s most popular live events. Its annual Best of Phoenix A’fare, tied to its popular annual “Best of Phoenix” issue, features cuisine from dozens of restaurants from all over the Valley, along with wine, cocktails, beer and entertainment. And at its annual NovemBEER Festival, nearly fifty local breweries serve up more than 100 beer options.

 

The total package makes New Times a must-read for anyone interested in taking the temperature of the nation’s fifth- largest city.
