Eugene Weekly

Eugene Weekly covers local and state politics, news, arts and culture, and it publishes investigative[3][4] and solutions journalism.

[5] Eugene Weekly has won regional and national awards for its reporting,[6] solutions journalism[7] and photography[8] and for its arts criticism.

It started as an effort to retain a particularly popular section, the events calendar, of the immediately previous alternative newspaper, the Willamette Valley Observer, itself a successor to the Eugene Augur.

[13] The loss left the Weekly with several months of unpaid bills and unable to pay its 10 staff members, who were laid off beginning on December 21.

The newspaper was put on hiatus due to an unpaid debt to its printer; a fundraising campaign was started on GoFundMe to restart operations.
