The Village Voice existed at a unique moment in journalistic history. My guest, journalist Tricia Romano, has penned 'The Freaks Came Out to Write,' the definitive oral history of The Village Voice. It was a publication that not only captured but also shaped the zeitgeist of New York City from the paper's inception in 1955 until its closure in 2018.
The Voice was more than a newspaper; it was a cultural beacon, a meeting point of news, culture, and lifestyle, embodying the ever-evolving spirit of the city. It's one of those rare instances where a city and a publication converge to capture something unique in the annals of journalism, akin to Playboy and Chicago in the '50s, Rolling Stone and San Francisco in the '60s, and Texas Monthly defining the so-called New South of the '70s.
