The Portland Mercury
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Portland Mercury is an "alternative weekly" newspaper published in Portland, Oregon. It chronicles the ever-changing details of Portland's music scene, including interviews, commentaries, reviews, and concert dates, and also features the popular "I, anonymous" section, in which local readers can write in with their rants and raves about the people and things that piss them off the most. The articles have been notorious for being biased and opinionated, which has led to critics labelling the staff of The Mercury as elitists. It is similar in style to its sibling publication, Seattle, Washington's The Stranger.
