Amerikansky Russky Viestnik
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Amerikansky Russky Viestnik (1892—1952) was the longest-running Rusyn-American newspaper in the United States.
The paper was the official publication of the Greek Catholic Union of Rusyn Brotherhoods, a fraternal benefit society based in Pennsylvania. Its founding editor was Paul Zatkovich (1892-1914), who was followed by Michael Hanchin (1914-1920), George Jurion Thegze (1920-1929), Father Stefan Varzaly (1929-1936), and Michael Roman (1937-1952).
It was published in both Cyrillic and Roman-alphabet editions. In 1952 it was replaced with the English-language Greek Catholic Union Messanger, which ran until 1992.
