What is Wheeling Free Press
When this project started in January 2023, the goal was to cover city council politics for the citizens of Wheeling, W.Va. Quickly, it expanded to covering social issues, culture, and the community as a whole. We believe Wheeling Free Press is offering people the media they deserve — thoughtful, nuanced, and, when needed, adversarial.
As our name suggests, Wheeling Free Press is committed to being a free site. We will never hide our stories behind a paywall. Currently, we are solely funded through the generosity of our readers and supporters. If you want to help sustain this project, please consider adding your name to our paid subscriber list.
If you have any questions please contact our founder and editor-in-chief Justice Hudson at justicexh97@gmail.com
Thank you for reading, sharing, and supporting local media!
