Charleston City Paper 27.45: June 7, 2024

Charleston City Paper, a leading local independent news platform, has launched its 27.45 edition on June 7, 2024. The platform continues to thrive by providing free, in-depth reporting on matters significant to Charleston and the surrounding areas. Despite the absence of a paywall, the local paper prompts charitable donations of $100 to maintain its operational sustainability.

Coverage Areas

While the paper is based in Charleston, the reach extends to North Charleston, Johns Island, Summerville, and Mount Pleasant. Along with the printed issues, an online platform with an organized dropdown menu availing various sections such as Cuisine, News, Opinion, Culture, Events, Membership, Donate, and Neighborhood tour has been maintained. The current user-friendly layout allows easy navigation for readers aiming at different areas of interest.

Continuous Variety Through Segments and Dropdown Menus

The Cuisine menu features options such as Food+Drink, DISH Dining Guide, SWIG Bar Guide, and HOPS Craft Beer Guide. Readers have an assortment of restaurant reviews, recipe guides, and beverage tips at their disposal. In the News section, digital editions of the newspaper are accessible, alongside an informative ‘Statehouse Report’ and a ‘Blotter’, amongst others. Under Culture, one can find updates on the arts, including important music awards and film digs, as well as coverage of major city events such as the 2024 Piccolo + Spoleto festival.

Opinion Pieces and Editorial Input

In the spirit of fostering unbiased journalism, Charleston City Paper features an opinion section. Readers can enjoy editorials by Andy Brack and Herb Frazier, humorous comic pieces by Ariail and Stegelin, advice from Dr. Jane, and various guest columnists. Importantly, the platform encourages public engagement by accepting letters from readers.

Local Music Scene

A dedicated music section covers the vibrant local music scene. Featuring up-to-date news on the CP Music Awards, it allows a detailed exploration of the varied sounds and talents in the city.

City News and Events

The Events section provides a comprehensive events calendar, providing information on what’s happening in the city week by week. The Neighborhood tour section offers a guide to areas within Charleston, such as Downtown Charleston, Folly Beach, Johns Island, Mount Pleasant, North Charleston, Summerville, and West Ashley. This guide benefits both residents and tourists looking to explore the city.

Strengthening Charleston Community

The Charleston City Paper dedicates itself to keeping the local community informed and connected, as well as fostering discussions through interactive sections for user engagement.
