The Association of Alternative
Newsweeklies (AAN) is the
trade organization for the
alternative newspaper business.
AAN is a diverse group of
126 non-daily free-circulation
papers, including Cityview,
that are distributed in all
of the major metropolitan
areas of North America. Each
paper has a distinct, local
identity that sets it apart
from the mainstream press
in its market.
Since its inception in 1978,
AAN's primary mission has
been to help its member papers
flourish. The association
strives for that ideal by
focusing on the following
activities:
1. Promoting quality journalism
and editorial excellence
among its members;
2. Facilitating access to
information to enable member
newspapers to raise their
level of professional and
business performance;
3. Supporting the marketing
and advertising efforts
of member newspapers;
4. Increasing awareness
of the alternative newspaper
business; and
5. Advocating the interests
of the industry. Listed

alternative newspapers like
