Lather Weekly, a 9-month-old arts and
entertainment publication founded by a former
Independent Weekly editor, is dead. Mark
Hornburg started the biweekly publication in
December, hoping to reach "the Raleigh hipster
scene," according to Joanna Kakissis of The
News & Observer. Hornburg says the August 7-20
issue will be the paper's last, though he says he
plans to revive the publication online. Lather's
demise was announced only four days after the News
& Observer ran a 2200-word feature story
(see below) about the fledgling paper.
