Important context: Truth Signal weighs public evidence about this business.

A low score means the evidence is thin or raises concerns, not that the business is unsafe or a scam.

About them

What makes them different: “As the first woman hired to cover hard news at the Journal, in 1954, and one of the first women promoted to be a managing editor in the nation, McCarty had to open a lot of doors for herself.”

What its pages say

In their own words: “The Albuquerque Journal traces its history to 1880, so it stands to reason the newspaper has made some significant announcements over the past 140 years. You could start with the move in 1882 from Old Town to “new” town near the railroad, up through the evolution of its name from the Albuquerque Journal-Democrat to the Albuquerque Journal in 1925 with the adoption of an independent editorial policy followed to this day. There was the move in 1982 from Downtown to a new $40 million plant in Journal Center industrial and office park, the award of a Pulitzer Prize in 1990 and a series of product innovations, including Business Outlook, right up through the debut of entertainment/TV tab VP last week.”
