A zine — short for “fanzine” or “magazine” — is a small format, small circulation publication often popular with young people and/or niche markets.
Reverend Billy Talen, who is running for Mayor of New York City with the Green Party, has published a zine as part of his campaign material. You can find a downloadable pdf here at the Vote Rev Billy web-site.
From the web-site:
The zine is a fictional day in the life of Rev Billy, over four initial episodes between now and October 1st. During this long day he comes face to face with a city run by and as a corporation…he combats evictions, gentrification, box stores, chains, pollution, and a city losing its soul…until, with the help of a volunteer army, he gets to the heart of the financial corruption and…stay tuned!

Probably he should send it to a newspaper, so they can publish it.
