The Spotlight

The Spotlight was a weekly newspaper publish by the Liberty Lobby from 1975 till 2001. It ran news and opinion articles with a populist and anti-establishment view on a variety of subjects. The Spotlight for a while was the most widely-read periodical on the right in the United States, with circulation peaking around 200,000 in the early 1980s. While circulation experienced a steady drop after that, it continued to be published until Liberty Lobby's demise in 2001. In 2001, Liberty Lobby and Willis Carto lost a lawsuit brought by a rival group which had earlier gained control of the Institute for Historical Review, and the ensuing judgment bankrupted the organization. Willis Carto and others who had been involved in publishing The Spotlight have since started a new newspaper, the American Free Press, which is very similar in overall tone to The Spotlight.
