The Weekly Times - TWT - 17th April 2019
The Weekly Times - TWT - cheekily describes itself as a campaigning, crusading, truth-seeking, death defying, Aussie battler-aligned, one-eyed-Tiger-led news organisation dedicated to Sydney's north west. It's one of the few remaining independently run community newspapers and turns 100 years old in 2021 - so if you want to show your support for independent media, have a quick look at the paper, submit a letter to the editor via its website or like or share one of its posts on social media. The flip book - or digital edition/replica - of the 17th April 2019 edition of TWT can be reached here: https://weeklytimes.com.au/the-weekly-times-twt-17th-April-2019/ And the most current edition of TWT is always reachable using this short address: bit.ly/OurTWT
