We have The Dallas Observer. It's an edgy and free-thinking weekly and full of good editorial content, but it's almost too full of ads to tolerate these days. You really have to look hard to find its articles. Still, I like it. They're not afraid to speak up and call something baloney when they need to. The regular Dallas daily paper is very conservative and safe, very sold out to Dallas society and conservative Texas politics. One of the best articles I ever read about recreational and medical marijuana was written in The Dallas Observer about three years ago.
birdgirl73 Reviewed by birdgirl73 on . Your Local "Alternative" Newspaper We have The Houston Press.. Its the coolest newspaper. They are considered the "alternative" to our Hearst Publicated Chronicle. they publish independent pieces without much censoring. They take votes on what the seediest Gay bar in houston is, which turns out was the one I practically lived in lol.. and the death metal rock performances at the small warehouse venues that no one else would print. they cover the stuff that isnt pretty enough for the other publications. they let people bitch.
