When Medford Stole the Ideas of Joe Viglione and Kept the Public OUT of Access, It was Because Medford is as Crooked as the Day is Long

 Medford needs a TV station, radio station, and newspaper. City Hall isn't listening because they are hiding too much

One of our readers sent me this:
One type of advertising he’s not getting are legal notices, a problem he blamed on town officials who don’t like the tough coverage the Independent is providing. Instead, legals continue to go to the Banner and another Gannett weekly, the Cape Codder, whose coverage area overlaps with the Independent in Eastham.

Miller began his career as a small-town newspaper owner in the town of Harvard in 1973, an experience that led him to co-write a 1978 book called “How to Produce a Small Newspaper.” He worked for four years for the Banner before deciding to launch his own venture, saying that GateHouse Media, which later acquired Gannett and took its name, “pretty much systematically stripped it of all its staff and other capacities.” https://dankennedy.net/2021/03/15/in-provincetown-a-startup-weekly-newspaper-is-challenging-gannett/
