Portland Mercury

The Portland Mercury is Portland, Oregon’s number one alternative weekly newspaper that’s filled with brash, irreverent wit and opinion, as well as insightful news articles that hold our elected officials feet to the fire when it comes to the subject of social justice. Founded in 2000 as a sister publication to Seattle’s The Stranger, the Mercury has won numerous national awards for journalism, arts criticism, and design, making it one of the most widely respected and read weeklies in the nation. The Mercury’s website and blog are Portland’s “go-to” sources for the latest in local breaking news, events, and comedy. Backed up by a robust and hugely popular social media presence, the Mercury is reaching more readers across the nation than ever before. Along with their weekly edition, other specialties include a Things To Do Calendar, Portland Visitors’ Guide, Oregon Cannabis Guide, sponsored content and Mercury Event Ticketing. The Portland Mercury is passionate about its city, and proves it every week by following their time-honored motto: Providing News, Entertainment, and Trouble.
