This news site’s business model is unlike any other in Ann Arbor or Michigan: A2Politico is all about sustainability, community, and accountability journalism.

We believe a local news site should support locally-owned businesses and non-profits. A2Politico supports our community’s small, locally-owned businesses and local non-profits by allowing them to advertise free of charge.
The site accepts advertisements and announcements from non-profit organizations, citizen groups, arts organizations and other similar non-governmental entities free of charge.
If yours is a locally-owned business, we will accept your advertisements, as well, provided that the ad is a COUPON which may be redeemed by A2Politico readers.
