Gay City News is a weekly LGBTQ+ newspaper founded in 1994, and is one of the most widely popular queer news sources in the country at approximately 47000 copies distributed per day. This particularly newspaper was actually available for free in large quantities in the Brooklyn neighborhood I grew up in: Park Slope. I feel that the free distribution of queer media is significant, both because it shows that queer news is public information and not some sort of adult entertainment, and because it allows everyone, including those without easy access to the internet, to find the news.
