The Homer News is a weekly newspaper published in Homer, Alaska since 1964.
The newspaper began circulation in January 1964. Founders Hall and Marion Thorn had moved a few years earlier to Homer, where Hal's parents were longtime residents. In the Thorns' hands, the Homer News was a product of the battle over incorporation. Its own motto, "Aims for Progress," reflected the views of those who saw incorporation as a step into the modern age.
Homer News switched its name to Homer Weekly News from 1973 to 1976 and back to Homer News on 1976. [2]
