The Georgia Gazette was a weekly alternative newspaper in Savannah, Georgia that took its name from Georgia's first newspaper, also founded in Savannah in 1763.[1] Its owners and publishers were Marjorie Scardino and Albert Scardino. It was awarded a Pulitzer Prize for Editorial Writing in 1984, the first time in twenty years that such a prize had been bestowed on a weekly newspaper.[2] Despite this recognition, however, the newspaper became financially infeasible to publish and closed in 1985.[3] Albert Scardino went on to write for The New York Times, and Marjorie Scardino later became CEO of Pearson PLC.
