TFP In A Nutshell
The Fugitive Post is a free news magazine dedicated to local and regional news,
features, and resources centered around crime. We inform readers about crime, its
impact on their communities and culture and how they can better protect
themselves against it. We tell our stories from the perspective of the people directly
involved in and directly affected by crime.
On a lighter side, we review legislation ideas, forensic technology, opinions,
personal success stories, and the "how to" about crime related safety issues. Its
crime-awareness message informs and entertains the public, while its unique
extensive coverage helps individuals and communities fight crime.
TFP is free to readers, with a monthly circulation of 25,000 copies distributed
throughout the Austin Metro area and is solely funded by local advertisers.

WHY WE DO IT
Statistics continue to show that crime affects all of us, whether physically,
emotionally or financially. Regardless of age, sex or background we put ourselves
at risk by not being informed.
Victims of crime often feel powerless because they don’t know how the system
works, or who can help them. Our aim at The Fugitive Post is to close the
knowledge gap in our communities by getting people to think about the issues that
concern all of us.
A nationwide study on news preferences conducted before The Fugitive Post hit
the shelves found that the general rating for the effectiveness of crime news was a
meager 73 percent, leaving a robust 27 percent room for improvement.
The information in The Fugitive Post is always fresh and up to date. This is
important because to truly understand how to protect ourselves, our children and
our neighbors, we must start by being better informed.

HOW WE ARE SUPPORTED
The Fugitive Post is an independent, privately owned publication. That means that
we use no tax money, and answer only to our readers.
We are solely supported by local businesses who advertise their products and
services in our monthly issues. By successfully obtaining this level of advertising
support, we can improve our growth within the community and in surrounding
areas. We aim to continue introducing fresh new editorial features, stories, articles,
and resources to our readers.
In addition, we will continue to sponsor the organizations and law enforcement
agencies that provide the community with the information necessary for their
protection. By working toward a productive dialogue between law enforcement
agencies and the community we’ll be armed with the tools to fight back at crime
from the safety of their homes.
