It looks like the new Detroit Daily Press will start publishing in less than two weeks.

I know several folks now on staff; good news people all. Should be interesting.

According to the Associated Press:

Brothers Mark and Gary Stern said Friday they'll start publishing The Detroit Daily Press on Nov. 23, selling it for 50 cents daily and $1 on Sundays. Home delivery starts Nov. 30.

The paper's 60 full-time employees are using the former offices of The Daily Tribune of Royal Oak, which moved.

The Sterns ran daily newspapers in Detroit in 1964 and 1967; New York in 1978; and Minneapolis in 1980 when workers at those cities' major newspapers went on strike.

The paper's new site is here and its Facebook fan page is here.

Here are some stories about today's announcement:
