The Hook weekly
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Hook is a weekly newspaper in Charlottesville, Virginia. It was founded by a number of employees unhappy at another Charlottesville weekly, the aptly named C-ville Weekly, in 2002. Since then, the weekly's gone on to win the hearts of eager readers and trounce its competition in the race for prizes from the Virginia Press Association. More importantly, it has shown that a small-size city really can support more than one so-called alternative weeklies.
One of the silliest but perhaps most popular things about the Hook is its webcam because it's always showing the lively streetscape on Charlottesville's Downtown Mall-- a pedestrian promenade that includes the Charlottesville Ice Park as well as the Jefferson and Paramount theaters.
