An Authentic Chronicle of Faith and Public Service Through Founding, Owning and Operating a Community Newspaper That Stood Up to a Powerful Right Wing Church
"Nick Benton has been a friend of mine for more than 30 years. He is relentless, indefatigable, creative, entrepreneurial, and yes, even opinionated. Nick is also among the most loyal persons I have ever known... Our very sense of community, in this fractured world of social media, remote work, and creeping friendlessness, has been enhanced and reinforced every Thursday by Nick's Falls Church News-Press and his unique voice."- U.S. Congressman Donald S. Beyer Jr. "The Falls Church News-Press was first published on March 28, 1991, to benefit the residents of the City of Falls Church and its environs with an independent newspaper of record providing news, announcements, comments, letters to the editor, advertising and items of human interest...The longevity of the paper is due to the tireless dedication of the News-Press staff, and to founder and editor Nicholas Benton...Freedom of the press and an informed citizenry has been a cornerstone of democracy...and the Falls Church News-Press has played a significant role in connecting the residents of Falls Church with government, schools, and with each other."
