THE ALBUQUERQUE TRIBUNE
(Redirected from Albuquerque Tribune)
'''The Albuquerque Tribune''' is a newspaper in Albuquerque, New Mexico, founded in 1922 by Carlton Cole Magee as ''Magee's Independent''. It is published in the afternoon and evening Monday through Saturday. Its logo and the logo of the entire Scripps-Howard newspaper chain, which deptics a lighthouse, was inspired by Magee's original slogan (adopted from Dante) for the Tribune: "Give Light and the People Will Find Their Own Way."
''The Albuquerque Tribune'' won the Pulitzer Prize in 1994 for Eileen Welsome's series entitled "The Plutonium Experiment."
On February 20, 1933, ''The Albuquerque Tribune'' formed the nation's first joint operating agreement (JOA), entitled the "Albuquerque Plan," with the ''Albuquerque Journal'' in response to the Great Depression of 1929. The JOA established the Albuquerque Publishing Company and merged the ''Albuquerque Evening Journal'' with the ''Tribune'' (which at this point changed its name from the ''New Mexico State Tribune'' to ''The Albuquerque Tribune''.)
''The Albuquerque Tribune'' and ''Albuquerque Journal'' merged presses, advertising and circulation while remaining as separate entities. As part of the joint operating agreement, the ''Tribune'' is a local newspaper only; therefore, it focuses on issues in the Albuquerque metropolitan area. It still runs national and world news and has a DC correspondent, however. Both papers operate in different parts of the same building, which also houses the presses used to print both newspapers. The joint operating agreement is still in effect today.
