NEW HAVEN, Conn. (WTNH) — Amid a technology-heavy society, a New Haven-based newspaper has plans bring to connection and advocacy to Elm City and beyond.
The New Haven Advocate was established in 1975 and shut down in 2013. Friday evening, veteran journalists celebrated its relaunch.
Journalists Colleen Van Tassell and Tom Smith brought “new” New Haven Advocate back into print circulation. Its first issue will hit Elm City streets next week.
John Guillemette, an editor for the newspaper, said they’re excited for the launch — and every issue going forward. The staff plans to bring newspaper copies around to different neighborhoods, “sharing this connectivity that prints that publications can bring,” Guillemette said.
“Vinyl’s back, film photography is back, print newspapers are back and The Advocate’s back,” Guillemette said.
The idea behind the Advocate is related to society’s relationship with technology.
