Resources About The Town
To be in the know about Pittsburgh, one is most likely to reach for the traditional newspapers, The Post Gazette and The Tribune Review but if you want to discover some alternative happenings around town, try some of these local papers:
Probably the best place to begin is to pick up a copy of Pittsburgh's free alternative paper, City Paper . It's available all around the town at local shops and restaurants. At the newsstand you'll find Pittsburgh Magazine published by WQED, our public television station.
There are some interesting special interest magazines: new agers will want to see Point of Light ; fashion buffs will want Whirl; parents have The Pittsburgh Parent and there is a gay & lesbian newspaper called Out.
African-Americans will want to locate a copy of The New Pittsburgh Courier , Jews will gravitate to The Jewish Chronicle and Catholics will want to see a copy of The Pittsburgh Catholic.
And finally if you like to watch rather than read try The Pittsburgh Channel, our very own strictly local news and information program. Have fun!
