Detroit Sunday Journal

Detroit Sunday Journal

The Detroit Sunday Journal was a weekly newspaper published from November 19, 1995 through November 21, 1999 by striking workers from The Detroit News and The Detroit Free Press. It was staunchly pro-union, and focused on labor issues as well as local news. It was one of the longest-running "temporary" newspapers ever.

There were calls for it to become a daily paper in the Detroit area, given its left-leaning tendencies and pro-union focus. The calls went unheeded, however, and it closed down as the Detroit Newspaper strike was called off by the six unions participating in it.
