St Thomas Source
Verified
Online/Digital
Launched in January 1999 – the islands’ first and only daily internet newspaper – the VI Source soon became the “news publication of record” for the U.S. Virgin Islands. It took off immediately despite the absence of high speed internet in the islands for several years following the start up.
Today, more than 200,000 loyal and distinct readers use the Source every month – with its three publications: St. Thomas Source, St. Croix Source and St. John Source – as their source of reliable, insightful and consistently credible reporting of news and events on all three major islands. Source
