Oyster Pointer is a free monthly publication for and about businesses in and around the Oyster Point business park area of Newport News. In addition to Oyster Point, our service area includes Port Warwick and Tech Center. We are a niche publication with roots in serving and reporting on businesses around the confines of the 740-acre park that is home to more than 1,700 industrial, retail and commercial businesses.
Oyster Pointer, now in its 35th year, has an incredibly loyal following and continues to grow and be relevant. People in the area depend on us for news, features and profiles. We forego negative news and focus on the positive. We are not huge at 9,000 copies a month, but we are a key player when it comes to providing pertinent news and information. We leave a big footprint in the local media market, one that even our daily paper cannot match.
We invite readers to visit our website – www.oysterpointer.net — and you will find a “flip edition” of the current month, along with a chance to meet our team. We call ourselves the “good newspaper” because that’s what we deliver: good news!
