Real Detroit Weekly (often called just Real Detroit) is a weekly newspaper distributed free of charge every Wednesday, that focuses mainly on entertainment news from Hollywood and the metro Detroit nightclub scene. It has a proportion of advertisements similar to the Metro Times (and even some of the same advertisers) but is lacking in local news coverage compared to the latter. However, it often has better coverage of both local and national music, movies and entertainment events. Both publications are usually available at the same places.
Real Detroit Weekly just launched a completely new website on May 3, 2009.
