LOS ANGELES A free, six-day-a-week regional newspaper launched today in Washington, D.C., supported with an ad campaign by independent Thomas, Taber & Drazen, the agency said.

The 60-page, tabloid-style Washington Examiner will maintain an in-city editorial staff to cover local issues including real estate, crime, high-school sports, area dining and government, according to the paper. The difference between the Examiner and other suburban papers, said Daphne Fink, managing partner, account director at TTD, Denver, is that it will “position itself as a serious newspaper,” also offering in-depth coverage of national and international news.
