The Prisonerwire
Pennsylvania
Newspapers
By: Kenneth Dodson

We have prepared a list at many of the principle newspapers in the commonwealth. The following 77 publications reach the great majority of Pennsylvania families, about 4,236,000 of them.

We have put together an email list of newspapers. We are calling it The Prisonwire. Like a more conventional "wire service," we can disseminate news stories and news releases relating to prisoners and prison matters to all the most important daily and weekly papers.

Our users may find this list useful to (A) consult the paper's website and (B) to express themselves directly to the publications. We urge everyone to do both things.

In the list which follows, we've done our best to provide accurate and current information, but we can't guarantee it. The approximate circulation of each paper is listed in parentheses in thousands following the name of the paper.
