Gambit Weekly Returns to New Orleans

Posted on November 9, 2005

The Gambit Weekly, a New Orleans alternative newsweekly, returned to the Crescent City's streets November 1st issue. The paper's website has also returned.

"We are proud to bring back an important part of New Orleans," said publisher Margo DuBos, who has guided the paper since 1987. "Like many of our readers and advertisers, we suffered enormous setbacks with the flooding of our Mid-City offices and the evacuations of our staff, but, thankfully, all of our employees are well and Gambit Weekly is now back on its feet. While we faced many obstacles as we worked to get back in print, we are buoyed by the tremendous response that we have received from readers and advertisers upon hearing that Gambit Weekly has resumed publication. We are more confident than ever that New Orleans is on its way back -- and that Gambit Weekly will play a part in that recovery."
