The ''Falls Church News-Press'' is a weekly merchandiser based in Falls Church, Virginia. The periodical was founded in 1991 by Owner/Editor-in-Chief Nicholas F.

He left that night with the Chamber’s endorsement and a list of 250 businesses to approach. One hundred thirty agreed to support the periodical with their advertising. With a stack of their postcards pledging support as collateral, Benton secured seed money to start the ''Falls Church News-Press''〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=more on seed money. )〕 The ''News-Press'' claims a free circulation of 10,000,〔http://fcnp.com/2006/08/09/adinfo/〕 and is delivered in Bailey's Crossroads, Sleepy Hollow, Pimmit Hills, Lake Barcroft, and City of Falls Church regions.
