A publication that printed "all the news that's fit to print" for the 60s counterculture. I'll bet there were also ads for your local head shop and gig and "art-film" listings. The Village Voice, the East Village Other, the International Times, etc. Modern offspring: free weeklies in many cities, but they rarely pose the threat to "The Man" that, say, Berkeley's Barb or San Francisco's Oracle did. No fear-of-God inducement amidst the wine articles, boutique ads, investment tips, and reviews of the latest local pop junk. More apt offspring: websites that try to build a politicized, albeit far-flung, community. For better or worse.
