Public News

Public News was an alternative news weekly, published in Houston, until 1998. Richard Tomcala created the publication as a flier in 1982 to advertise a nightclub, Rock Island/The Island, and this morphed into a newspaper. Bert Woodall came to the publication in early 1983 as a volunteer and, June 1984, bought Public News.
