The South Side Weekly, previously known as the Chicago Weekly News and Chicago Weekly, is an American alternative newspaper based in Woodlawn on the South Side of Chicago. It was established in 1995 under the Chicago Weekly News title and covers arts, culture, and politics.
The paper was produced by an all-volunteer editorial staff, composed largely of University of Chicago students. Now with an all paid staff, the paper is distributed around the South Side and Chicago bi-weekly on Thursdays.[1]
