The Urban Tulsa Weekly was an independent weekly newspaper with a circulation of about 35,000 distributed to the Tulsa metropolitan area every Thursday. Published and edited by Keith Skrzypczak, the newspaper struggled for years under his erratic leadership before ultimately folding when its printer threatened a lawsuit over unpaid invoices. The newspaper featured certain regular features including a "Capitolist" column by Arnold Hamilton, "Commentary" and "In the City." The Weekly also featured an annual "Hot 100" list naming Tulsa's most influential people for the year.
