Idaho Press buys Boise Weekly


The Idaho Press has bought the alternative Boise Weekly, the Press reported. 

Terms of the deal were not disclosed.

“We are very excited for Boise Weekly to be aligned with the Idaho Press,” said Idaho Press publisher Matt Davison. “As home delivery of the Idaho Press is now available in all of Ada County, the content and offerings of Boise Weekly will be perfect complementary content for readers in both Canyon and Ada counties.”

Sally Freeman, who has owned Boise Weekly since 2001, will remain as publisher.

“We have been partners printing Boise Weekly at Idaho Press for many years,” Freeman said. “Adams Publishing Group believes in journalism, newspapers and communities. Together we will be stronger, and our partnership ensures the sustainability of Boise Weekly. We will continue to serve our community and provide the independent lens that our readers count on.”

The Boise Weekly has been published since 1992. The Idaho Press, once known as the Idaho Press-Tribune, has served as paper of record in Canyon County going back to 1883.
