Palo Alto Weekly
Embarcadero Media Foundation is a nonprofit organization and hyperlocal news publisher based in Palo Alto, California. Founded in 1979, it transitioned to a nonprofit model in November 2023, aiming to enhance community life through journalism and partnerships. The foundation publishes three weekly newspapers—Palo Alto Weekly, The Almanac, and Mountain View Voice—and operates seven digital platforms, including Palo Alto Online and Pleasanton Weekly. Its focus is on local news, events, and investigative reporting, emphasizing public-interest journalism. The foundation maintains a strict editorial policy to ensure independence from donor influence, disclosing significant contributions and prohibiting sponsors from controlling editorial content. In September 2023, its newsroom staff unionized under the Pacific Media Workers Guild. Embarcadero Media Foundation adheres to the standards set by the Institute for Nonprofit News, prioritizing accountability and public-service journalism in its operations.
