You have to have some culture to put into the weekly
and there is little happening here relative to LA-
three main sparsely booked performance centers, a fair number
of civic stage and music groups.
Relatively politically uniform compared to LA, so not as much
an audience for muckraking articles.

I lived near San Jose for many years which was in a similar
position relative to SF.  However, they managed a couple of
lively weeklies with both the sparse entertainment scene there
and a fair amount of muckraking.
