Locally owned and independently published since
1983, the
Independent Weekly covers the booming Triangle Area
– including
Raleigh, Durham, Chapel Hill and Research Triangle
Park – in the heart
of North Carolina. Recently named the #1 City for
Jobs in the U.S.
(Forbes, Feb. 2007) and the #2 Best Place for
Business and Careers
(Forbes, May 2006) while boasting the highest per
capita PhD
population in the nation and, undoubtedly, the
world, the Triangle
consistently ranks in the Top 10 as one of the
"Best Places To Live" in
the nation (#4 on the latest CNN/Money survey).
Home to a huge
student population with three major universities –
North Carolina State,
UNC-Chapel Hill and Duke – within a "stone's throw"
of each other as
well as an affluent, educated and web-savvy general
populace, the entire
Triangle looks to us every Wednesday for insightful
and influential news
and arts coverage with an attitude – both in print
and online. The
Independent's reporters have won most of the major
national
investigative awards, including the George Polk
Award, the Investigative
Reporters and Editors Award, the Green Eyeshade
Award for the South's
best journalism and the Baltimore Sun's H.L.
Mencken Writing Award.
Our most recent national accolade was bestowed by
the 2007 Casey
Medals for Meritorious Journalism for the cover
story "Dreams Deferred"
(8/2/06 issue). In addition to our extensive weekly
A&E and political
coverage, we offer periodic Special Sections that
complement our
ongoing and notable music, film, visual arts,
theater, dance and pop
culture features loved and pored over by our loyal
readers. These "must
read" editions include "Dish" – a quarterly
restaurant compendium;
"Casa" – a twice-yearly look at area homes inside
and out; plus our
annual "Best of the Triangle," "Summer / Fall
Guides," "Arts / Music /
Citizen Awards," "Voting Guide" and "ACC Basketball
Preview."
