But aside from that... Your numbers really don't mean anything. You still never seem to get bigger than 26 pages. And yes we do have our audience, a very big one at that. Lets not forget that we don't just cover Asbury. I don't know anyone who reads Upstage other than to flip through it and throw it in the garbage. Eddie Murphy is Back (from you recent issue)? Are you serious? What does he have to do with anything in this area - you put him on the cover no less. And you have the nerve to make comments about the triCityNews? Plus you print syndicated articles from Kam Williams that 100 other papers print. Very original Gary I must say. Hey I'm not trying to be an asshole but you're the guy always making comments on this board about triCity so I'm gonna fire back at ya. The triCityNews. Does it really matter? Remember that one Gary. And fortunately for us we don't have a sales department because we don't need one. Why? Because all of the advertising comes to us. Interesting. We must not be very well read. Or, get this Gary, we must actually be doing something right. Lets not forget that Dan is one very smart guy as well as myself and editor Steven Froias. We know what we're doing. As for Tommy, I can't stand the crap he writes as much as the next guy. Hey Tommy, hope you're reading this. Update that justifiedright.com website for Christ's Sake. Bottomline, we are here to help Gary, just ask every business we've ever profiled. Ask them how well they did as a result of our coverage of them. Go ask Gary (a different Gary) down at Sister Sue's how well the triCityNews has helped his business. Have you been there yet? If not go and support him. And go ask the countless other businesses, artists, musicians, nonprofits, etc. how much we've helped. Go ask Ross at America's Cup how he got interested in Asbury and what inspired him to open his shop on Cookman. He'd tell you it was the triCityNews and what he read in the paper that got him interested. He used to call us once a month about 2 years before he opened to get our opinions on if he should open a coffee shop downtown. Our answer was of course yes. I could tell you a thousand other stories just like that one. So yes Gary, we're here to help. If you've got something to say, email us. Don't worry, we won't print it because I'm sure it won't be very interesting. --- In AsburyPark@yahoogroups.com, Gary Wien lightgrw@ wrote: Jason, I don't know what you're talking about. I'm not jealous of Tri- City at all. The fact is that people have told me they put Dan's mantra of printing every letter to the test and their letters didn't get printed. As Tommy will attest, I really haven't read your paper in years. I picked up the copy the other day at the Saint because the Saint was on the cover. I really think the new font looks great. As for jealous... I am envious of newspapers who have sales people although we recently added a sales department with our merger. Our paper is going to 15,000 copies in March with a brand new upgraded look and we'll be at 25,000 copies per month in July. Considering we had over 150,000 visitors to our website last month and the numbers continue to grow, I'd say we're in a pretty good position. Jealous? I doubt it. I think Tri City has its audience and we have ours. It's funny because we're an arts paper but the audiences are largely different. Asbury is just one place we distribute though and that's why we don't consider Tri City as a competitor. Hope this clears things up a bit.

Jason I'm going to respectfully ask you to not take part in this discussion of TCN anymore. We get to say what we want, to thousands of people, each week. These folks here don't have that privilege, and I consider it an honor to hold that privilege. We find ourselves in the unique postion of trying to guarantee a platform in the paper to even those who disagree with us. If we are going to come here to defend TCN, we can only end up looking like bullies. That's why I never respond to a letter writer in the paper - I think the least I should do is let the public have the last word since I get so many words. Let them vent against the paper here. It doesn't have to be defended here. You know how well we're doing. You know the reach of the paper and that we get out of state mail and press releases from every politician in the county. Don't rub it in. Just let it go. Yahoo!

DJ's trangressions in print over past months put me off. He is missing an opportunity to be a real newspaper. What you don't understand is that we're not trying to be a real newspaper. That is the Asbury Park Press' job although they don't do it very well. The whole point of the triCityNews is to point out happening or dare I say cool things across the entire Eastern Monmouth region, not just Asbury, and connect the dots between them all. Plus push for preserving and building great architecture and writing about the local political scene. That's it. Yes it is only our opinions. And while that may get annoying to some, that is what makes the paper successful. It's different than any other news media whether you agree or disagree with it. The paper is very well read and our influence is felt from Point Pleasant to the Highlands whether you believe it or not. And we do a lot of good things for a lot of good people. For instance this week Market in the Middle was unfairly blasted in the Press by Andrea Clurfeld. Marilyn, over at the Market, is devastated. Well guess who's stepping up and defending her when no other media outlet would? The triCityNews. We will be blasting Clurfeld in this week's issue. It's these things that separate us from everyone else. I don't have a problem with people who don't like the paper. You can't please everyone no matter what field you're in. Everyone has their own idea of what we should be writing. I have a problem with people who say we don't do any good and this is completely wrong. Yahoo!

I know he probably doesn't care about that, and I understand and sympathize with him about the prejudice in suburbia against AP, but nothing is worse than an intellectual snob.

Lets not forget that we don't just cover Asbury. I don't know anyone who reads Upstage other than to flip through it and throw it in the garbage. Eddie Murphy is Back (from you recent issue)? Are you serious? What does he have to do with anything in this area - you put him on the cover no less. And you have the nerve to make comments about the triCityNews? Plus you print syndicated articles from Kam Williams that 100 other papers print. Very original Gary I must say. Hey I'm not trying to be an asshole but you're the guy always making comments on this board about triCity so I'm gonna fire back at ya. The triCityNews. Does it really matter? Remember that one Gary. And fortunately for us we don't have a sales department because we don't need one. Why? Because all of the advertising comes to us. Interesting. We must not be very well read. Or, get this Gary, we must actually be doing something right. Lets not forget that Dan is one very smart guy as well as myself and editor Steven Froias. We know what we're doing. As for Tommy, I can't stand the crap he writes as much as the next guy. Hey Tommy, hope you're reading this. Update that justifiedright.com website for Christ's Sake. Bottomline, we are here to help Gary, just ask every business we've ever profiled. Ask them how well they did as a result of our coverage of them. Go ask Gary (a different Gary) down at Sister Sue's how well the triCityNews has helped his business. Have you been there yet? If not go and support him. And go ask the countless other businesses, artists, musicians, nonprofits, etc. how much we've helped. Go ask Ross at America's Cup how he got interested in Asbury and what inspired him to open his shop on Cookman. He'd tell you it was the triCityNews and what he read in the paper that got him interested. He used to call us once a month about 2 years before he opened to get our opinions on if he should open a coffee shop downtown. Our answer was of course yes. I could tell you a thousand other stories just like that one. So yes Gary, we're here to help. If you've got something to say, email us. Don't worry, we won't print it because I'm sure it won't be very interesting. --- In AsburyPark@yahoogroups.com, Gary Wien [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Jason, I don't know what you're talking about. I'm not jealous of Tri-City at all. The fact is that people have told me they put Dan's mantra of printing every letter to the test and their letters didn't get printed. As Tommy will attest, I really haven't read your paper in years. I picked up the copy the other day at the Saint because the Saint was on the cover. I really think the new font looks great. As for jealous... I am envious of newspapers who have sales people although we recently added a sales department with our merger. Our paper is going to 15,000 copies in March with a brand new upgraded look and we'll be at 25,000 copies per month in July. Considering we had over 150,000 visitors to our website last month and the numbers continue to grow, I'd say we're in a pretty good position. Jealous? I doubt it. I think Tri City has its audience and we have ours. It's funny because we're an arts paper but the audiences are largely different. Asbury is just one place we distribute though and that's why we don't consider Tri City as a competitor. Hope this clears things up a bit. After all, we're Upstage Magazine... we're here to help (lol) Yahoo!
