A newspaper's address is a small act of accountability. It tells readers, sources, and lawyers where to find the people responsible for what gets printed.
The Olympic Herald, which has published 425 articles since January, including more than a hundred about a sitting Clallam County judge, publishes no office address. Its donate page asks for contributions up to $500 and describes the operation only as "Independently owned in Clallam County, Washington."
The address trail that does exist belongs to its author's previous company. And it ends at a self-storage facility.
The BBB listing
The Better Business Bureau maintains a profile for Advice Chaser LLC, the lead-generation company Anthony Tomashefsky operated before the Olympic Herald. The profile describes a firm that "provides financial, estate, retirement, college and tax planning services," started October 19, 2020, with a BBB file opened December 17, 2022. The company is not BBB accredited and carries no rating. "BBB does not have sufficient information to issue a rating on this business." Its listed contact number carries a 917 area code: New York City.
As of October 24, 2026, the profile lists the business at:
40 Taylor Cutoff Rd, Sequim, WA 98382-9202.
That address is Sequim Self Storage. The facility's own website gives its location as 40 Taylor Cutoff Rd, Sequim, WA 98382, and a pack-and-ship retailer on-site describes itself as "located inside the main office of Sequim Self Storage at 40 Taylor Cutoff Rd." There is no office tower at that address, no newsroom, no suite number for a financial-planning consultancy. There are storage units.
A commenter in the r/PortAngeles2 thread about the Olympic Herald traced the same listing: "The listed address for Advice Chaser was traced back to a storage unit on Taylor Cutoff Road in Sequim, not a business office," the commenter wrote, linking the BBB profile. The BBB listing is still live, and the address still matches the storage facility.
The same commenter tied the address to a broader warning, alleging that Advice Chaser collected thousands of dollars upfront from clients who say they received nothing, claims TROH examines separately in this series. The address itself needs no allegation. It is printed on the profile, and it is a storage facility.
The other address
A Locateplus background report places Advice Chaser LLC elsewhere: 11 Sapphire Place, Sequim, a residence. Court records show that on February 12, 2024, Properties by Landmark Inc. filed an eviction action against Tomashefsky in Clallam County Superior Court. The next day, February 13, 2024, a $42,128 civil judgment was recorded against Tomashefsky and Advice Chaser LLC in New York, in the Revenued LLC case.
So the documented footprint of the last venture is: a storage unit on the BBB profile, a residence in a background report, an eviction filing, and a default judgment. The current venture, the one asking readers for money, publishes no address at all.
What a real newsroom looks like
Clallam County's paper of record, the Peninsula Daily News, operates from a published office in Port Angeles, with a staff directory, a masthead, and a century of accountability behind its nameplate. Readers can walk in. Process servers can, too.
The Olympic Herald offers none of that. Its "About" link redirects to itself and loads nothing. Its corrections and ethics pages appeared in July 2026, six months after launch, both bylined by the site's only author. Its contact page accepts messages. Its donate page accepts money, and describes what donors are funding in two short paragraphs: "Public records. Requesting documents, reviewing the details, and making records accessible." And "Local accountability. Following courts, public agencies, and decisions that affect Washington communities."
Nowhere in that pitch, or anywhere on the site, is a street address where the requesting, reviewing, and following takes place.
What it does not accept, because it does not disclose one, is a visitor.
The site demands scrutiny of judges, commissioners, psychologists, and private citizens, publishing their names hundreds of times. The man behind it will not publish the address of his own operation. The last address he gave the public was a storage unit.
This article relies on public court records and public complaints. TROH welcomes a response from Mr. Tomashefsky and will publish it in full.
