Idaho Press

The Idaho Press-Tribune is the second-oldest newspaper still in operation in Idaho, with its first issue published in December 1883. In its early days, the paper often served as a platform for political agendas. Frank Steunenberg was one of its first owners and editors. Following his assassination, the newspaper was sold to Rees H. Davis, who was also the editor of the Idaho Woman. This publication is recognized for significantly contributing to the movement for women's suffrage. On April 12, 1928, the Caldwell Tribune and Caldwell News came together to form the Caldwell News-Tribune.

Note: Not awesome

1 day ago | idahopress.com | Kate Noden

Over the weekend, something called Hetero Awesome Fest was held in downtown Boise, which to clarify was not a rejected Saturday Night Live sketch — it was a real festival, with merch, vendors and more porta-potties than actual people in attendance.

Which isn’t a celebration, it’s a reaction and definitely not awesome.

The sold-out performance, featuring opening sets from Wyatt Flores and Jelly Roll, will go down as one of the largest single-day events in Boise’s history.

They used to be impossible to miss with their flashing lights, bumping music and groups of riders pedaling through downtown Boise. But lately, bike bars have been noticeably quieter, fewer and almost absent altogether from the city’s downtown scene. Since first appearing in 2010, bike bars have become a popular and entertaining way to see in and around downtown — offering group rides between bars with music and drinks onboard.
