The Rogue Valley Messenger (RVM) is an alternative newspaper (biweekly by paper, whenever online) that covers community news and arts & entertainment events). Its HQ is in Medford, but media reach nominally extends from Merlin to Mt. Ashland and Crater Lake to Cave Junction, The Rogue Valley Messenger also offers a wide array of media services, including social promotions, press services, graphic design, start-up assistance, business strategy, branding, band bookings and press, event production, email marketing, etc.
My direct experience with the RVM is 2-fold. The second is as a reader of the free biweekly newspaper when I'm in Ashland. I also had a chance to chat briefly to an RCM employee who I ran into at Ruby's who was delivering papers via a cool self-peddled deliver bike. The first is that I was one of their Kickstarter Donors that helped them successfully publish Volume 1, Issue 1 for the period of March 12-26. I received that issue and a nice thank you. And it's an honor to be part of independent locally-grown media. read more
