The Spotlight was a weekly newspaper in the United States, published in Washington, D.C. from September 1975 to July 2001 by the now-defunct antisemitic Liberty Lobby. The Spotlight ran articles and editorials professing a "populist and nationalist" political orientation. Some observers have described the publication as promoting a right-wing, or conservative, politics.
After a lawsuit against Liberty Lobby brought by the Holocaust denial organization the Institute for Historical Review, the newspaper was shuttered in 2001. Some of those involved in the paper went on to found the American Free Press, a similar publication.
