Rat (newspaper)
''Rat Subterranean News,'' New York's second major underground newspaper, was created in March 1968, primarily by editor Jeff Shero,〔Jeff Shero's name became Jeff Nightbyrd at some point after he left ''Rat''.〕 Alice Embree and Gary Thiher, who moved up from Austin, Texas, where they had been involved in ''The Rag''.
==Beginnings==
Probably more than any other underground paper, ''Rat'' was in the eye of the political hurricane, making news as well as reporting it. ''Rat'' immediately attained national notoriety for its exclusive inside stories from the Columbia University student uprising in the spring of 1968. Its notoriety grew further when a couple of staff members (including star reporter Jane Alpert) were arrested in connection with a series of non-lethal bombings of corporate offices and military targets in late 1969. Its reputation took a new turn when it became the first bastion of sexism within "the revolution" to be successfully stormed by the forces of the emerging women's movement in early 1970. In its new incarnation as ''Women's LibeRATion'', it lasted another few issues into the fall of 1970.
While the ''East Village Other'', published a few blocks away, represented the countercultural "establishment" with its arty covers and relatively relaxed culture-oriented content, ''Rat'' embodied the raging far-left politics of the late Sixties. Unlike the orthodox Marxist press, however, it still represented the fun-loving, free-wheeling spirit of hippiedom. Its stripped-down, straightforward design (created by Bob Eisner, later a leading designer of mainstream papers) marked a sharp break with the baroque psychedelia of ''EVO'' and other first-generation underground papers. But its relatively austere aethetics were relieved by abundant cartoons, including covers by Robert Crumb and clippings from 1940s poultry magazines found on the street and used as decorations wherever they fit.
