Honolulu Weekly was analternative weeklynewspaper published inHonolulu,Hawaiʻi. Founded by Laurie V. Carlson, it began publishing in the summer of 1991, ostensibly to fill gaps in investigative reporting left by the two main dailies,Honolulu Star-Bulletin andThe Honolulu Advertiser, which were under a joint operating agreement at the time, but creating new gaps in taste and perspective. In May 2005 theWeekly acquired theKona-basedHawaii Island Journal.[2] The Hawaii Island Journal published its last issue on Friday, June 13, 2008. TheHonolulu Weekly published its final issue on June 5, 2013, and ceased operations.[3] Publisher Carlson cited low ad revenues and the failure to find a buyer as among the primary reasons for shutting the paper down.[4]
