  • GEORGE HINTON HENRY, THE FATHER OF ALASKA JOURNALISM, FOUND AT LAST!
    Sep 23 2025
    Episode 71: George Hinton Henry, The Father osf Alaska Journalism Found at Last ---Maybe No chapter on newspapers in Alaska would be complete without a section on the most-sued member of the press, George Hinton Henry. Henry published/edited six papers in four cities between 1907 and 1915. These included the Yukon Press, Tanana Citizen, Hot Springs Echo, Tanana News, Free Press (Fairbanks), and Socialist Press in Fairbanks. He was responsible for a great number of newspapers in a great number of towns, all of which went broke. Further, he probably holds the record for the number of times an editor has been sued for slander, though the true number is unknown as most of the records for that time period have been lost. While some of the historical documentation still exists, the bulk of the information on his sordid career appears in the various papers not published by him. ____________________________ ____________________________________________ ______________________________________________________ Get to know the authors at The Readers and Writers Book Club ________________ Now Available Meet Steve Levi, Your Host for Episode 71: George Hinton Henry, The Father osf Alaska Journalism Found at Last ---Maybe Steve Levi is a 70-something writer in Alaska.
