Metro Pulse
''Metro Pulse'' was a weekly newspaper in Knoxville, Tennessee. It was founded in 1991 by Ashley Capps, Rand Pearson, Ian Blackburn, and Margaret Weston, and was a member of the Association of Alternative Newsweeklies.
In 2007, ''Metro Pulse'' was sold to the media conglomerate E.W. Scripps Company, which also owns several other local media outlets, including Knoxville's daily newspaper, the ''Knoxville News Sentinel'', and the ''Shopper News'' in Halls.
Scripps ceased publication of the newspaper on October 15, 2014. The ''News Sentinel'', Knoxville's daily newspaper, also owned by Scripps, launched a free arts and entertainment supplement in its place. Employees were told not to talk to the media or they would not receive severance. In November 2014, a group of Knoxville journalists announced plans for ''Hard Knox Independent'', a new alternative weekly to launch in January 2015 that aims to fill the niche formerly occupied by ''Metro Pulse''.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Alternative to the Metro Pulse pulls closer to reality )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=New independent newspaper seeks to fill void left behind by Metro Pulse closure )〕 Meanwhile, the actual editors of ''Metro Pulse'' declined to sign their severance agreements, which included a non-compete clause with the ''News Sentinel''. Instead, they announced plans to start their own weekly paper, the ''Knoxville Mercury,'' utilizing a Kickstarter campaign and donations collected by a non-profit, the Knoxville History Project, for start-up funding.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Laid-off ''Metro Pulse'' editors plan a new publication in Knoxville )〕 The ''Knoxville Mercury'' was officially launched in March 2015.〔Joe Sullivan, "(Here's to the Launch of 'Mercury'"! ), ''Knoxville Mercury'', 11 March 2015.〕
