Village Voice Media Inc.
 PROFILE
Sometimes it takes more than a village. Village Voice Media, named after its flagship New York City paper, encompasses seven alternative weeklies, including the "L.A. Weekly," in six states with a combined circulation of nearly 700,000. "The Village Voice" was founded in 1955 and became a force of non-establishment journalism covering politics, culture, and the arts. Contributing writers have included Norman Mailer, Henry Miller, and e.e. cummings, and the paper has won three Pulitzer Prizes (1981, 1986, 2000). Village Voice Media also operates Web sites for each of its publications. The company was formed in 2000 when an investment group led by Weiss, Peck & Greer bought Stern Publishing.
