Founded in 1983, The Hudson Reporter publishes nine weekly newspapers, capturing the highest home-delivered circulation of any newspaper in Hudson County. Our award-winning periodicals also include specialty publications and two, glossy magazines: Jersey City Magazine and Palisade.

The past few years have brought tremendous change to the western banks of the Hudson River.

As newcomers flock to the area and explore their surroundings, long-time residents are meeting their neighbors - and discovering new opportunities - at every turn.

Luxury developments line the riverbanks, and boutiques, restaurants and art galleries are opening every week. Young families fill the streets with baby carriages. Empty nesters and young artists wait together for trains running along the expanding light rail system.

But change can be hard. Transformation does not come easily.

How does one gain a sense of community in a new and evolving place? Where can you turn for resources, entertainment and a bird's-eye view of our home along the Hudson?

We created hudsonreporter.com to answer some of those questions, yet we hope it will do more. We'd like our site to be a sort of meeting place a town square, if you will, where you can read about the people, politics and places that make living here so exciting.

I am also in the process of getting ripped off by Mario Michele. I gave them a deposit of 2K for my wedding in September, however, I called to ask a question and hear a voice message that they filed for bankruptcy. Chances are Im never going to hear from these scumbags again. Hope they rot in hell.

We have a nightmare with Mario Michele Studio . We hired them for our wedding in summer of 2008 and we still do not have the finished products. Lucy and Sonia are both unethical, unprofessional and frauds. They have a F rating from the BBB and have many complaints online. They never return emails or calls. It takes them at least three emails before they reply back. At first they are very responsive and call when the deposits are due; however once all deposits are paid they put their clients on the back burner. It took over 6 months to get the RAW pictures and footage and once we did receive it discs were broken or the fiels would not open. Bottom line they have failed to deliver on the written and verbal contract and lack client service. If you would like to discuss, please leave your email address and I can contact you.

Referring to unkind comment by new councilman Ruane about Cupo & Kantor. "This brings sore losing to a whole new level". It also brings your level of compassion to a lower level for many citizens. Shame on you.

Your article on DC Robert Delpriore didn't state anything about his sexual harassment of a female officer this was reported in your paper, he was not liked by most real cops due to his nepotism and lack of real leadership skills- he was forced out of office and had a lawsuit againest the township- These facts were obviously omitted by your paper due to the fact that he had passed away- Good ridence to him death was too good for this clown

As part of the Hudson community, I would like to warn the residents about a business that has opened up. Mario Michele Studio recently opened up their photography studio in Hobeken. The mother/daughter/son-in-law/ team lacks professionalism and client service. They have signed contracts starting from 6000 - 13,000 and have not produced all the deliverables. They ignore phone calls and hardly acknowledge emails. They have a F rating from the BBB and have numerous complaints online.

Hello, Good Afternoon, my name is Towana M. Jackson 2nd assistant to Michael Jackson also known as Mic Jacks of JungleCity Productions/M05 Filmz. Mic Jacks is an up and coming film writer and director, from right here in Jersey City. Mic has a short film/movie premiere in Ny. On October 17, 2009 at the Helen Mills Theater in NY. We are also working on a location to premiere in Jersey City as well, we would love for one of your reporters/writers/photogographers, to come to the premiere on us of course, and maybe write a little something in the paper leading up to the premiere. All the cast and staff are right out the gate and we completed this project with no outside money.....none. If you would please take a moment to visit the website: www.junglecityprod.com to view the movie trailer, and the mission statement. All support we receive will be posted on the website as well as the Facebook page. Mic Jacks is definitly one of Jersey Citys own to watch for.

Im looking forward to hearing from you.



Sincerely,

Towana M. Jackson

Saving Secaucus's & NJ station My 9 WWOR TV sending out an SOS

8 days ago | 310 views | 1 | 10 | | Dear Editor:

My 9, not New Jersey's My 9 WWOR-TV even though it is located in Secaucus and licensed to New Jersey. They just announced that they will kill their 10 pm newscast and air at 11pm against three other network newscasts and cut it in half to a half an hour and cancel their weekend news all together.

New Jersey this a wakeup call if you don't write the station, your legislators and become an active New Jersey citizen we stand lose not only our only fully commercial VHF station, But our NJ voice. We need to send Rupert Murdoch a clear message that he needs to respect New Jersey and while he gave us a different voice politically he is taking New Jersey's voice away.

I have a tremendous amount of respect for Murdoch, however when it comes at the expensive of our station then I have a problem. The game plan for channel 9 seems to be making it a shadow network to plug and promote its bigger, more glamorous sister station Fox 5 NY! With the cancellation, of our New Jersey newscast on 9 they announced they will expand GOOD DAY NEW YORK by adding another hour to its marathon already. They are also taking the new Wendy Williams Show (it will have a first run at 10 am on Fox 5 first) and putting that on ch. 9 at 10 pm where our jersey centric newscast is supposed to be all in the name of maximizing exposure and ad sales for sister station Fox 5. NY. New Jersey let's not lose our only Jersey station that produced some great shows and personalities like Joe Franklin, Morton Downey Jr., Sara Lee Kessler, Jennifer Valoppi, Matt Lauer and Lloyd Lyndsay Young just to name a few.

While Fox is saying that this is all being done because of the economic crisis this has been going on since they bought the station over in 2001 and became a duopoly.

In fact, nearly two years ago, there was an FCC licensing meeting about Ch 9 where Senator Frank Lautenberg put on a show and said he was challenging Ch. 9's inadequate coverage of New Jersey. The only thing to come of that meeting was a name change for their website from my9ny.com to my9tv.com it seems they should have kept it because at least it was accurate.

However, New Jersey we can send Murdoch a real message one that he will listen to and be obligated to respond. Let him know that our New Jersey studios in Secaucus should go back to producing Great New Jersey TV shows. They have one the area’s best multi-million dollar studios which are dormant and unused; they can be doing a talk show there, game shows, cooking show, or adding our own Good Day Jersey show. This would be showing us Mr. Murdoch that New Jersey Matters and not just broadcasting hot air! We need our New Jersey Media!

Since the arrests occurred early Thursday and the FBI-US Attorney press conference was Thursday afternoon, your edition must have been ready for printing, so you had to shout "Stop the presses" and work like fiends to write and place the story that y6ou absolutely positively could NOT leave for a week. A job well done.

I want to point out what I believe is a case where business has overstepped its bounds and trod on quality of life and the spirit of the city,

\Childrens Dental at 3700 Kennedy blvd has decided to promote its business by painting the stately rock wall along the street purple! This is an abomination and an insult to the history and respectibility of Kennedy blvd. OK it's not 5th avenue of NYC but it is still the grandest street in Union and Jersey City , In fact it was once called Hudson avenue and home to mansions and the famous names of the area like Hague Howe Dr, Pascarell . Grand stone walls line Kennedy blvd and remind us of our rich history And the prestigous address it once was. This stone was cut and laid by the European immigrants and artisians. So it is an ancestgral link to our past.

Perhaps the current owner doesnt care about history but he has gone too far and is out to ruin the character of the street and make it a joke- I plna to write the town about this
