Abstract

Until recent years, there were only two classes or· types of journalism, metropolitan and community, their products being the city daily and the small town weekly. With changing social and industrial conditions, however, and a consequent growth or' suburban communities, another and distinct type of journalism has grown up. This is the suburban weekly. Just as the community newspaper is radically different from the metropolitan daily, so is the suburban weekly distinct from either. It is not a glorified country paper, neither is it a small-scale city newspaper. While it embodies some of the features of both, it is yet not a compromise between the two.
