Still the Buzz: Washington Post Writer Kicked at AAN Conventionnew

Reporters who kick butt can get their butt kicked, too. It happened to Richard Leiby at the 1994 AAN convention in Boston. Leiby's recent appointment as the Post's gossip columnist spurred Press Action editor Mark Hand to try to get to the bottom of the juicy story. Who put out the hit on Leiby? Who delivered the kick? What was the motive? Has all been forgiven? Leiby graciously tells Hand he would love to attend another AAN gathering, but "I'll be sure to pack my ass armor…just in case." The outfit he wore in Iraq might do.

Research firm Claritas profiled our diverse readership for Alternative Weekly Network.

New York City News Rack Owners Accumulate Fines for "Aesthetic" Violationsnew

Most publishers would like to soften New York's Local Law 23, which imposes fines for "dirty" news racks, and some contend the law is unconstitutional. Since last April, when enforcement began, the city's Department of Transportation has assessed more than 2,000 fines, totaling almost $1 million, Cynthia Cotts of the Village Voice reports. The burden is greatest for smaller businesses. New York Press publisher Charles Colletti says the weekly has received fines of almost $100,000 and has hired a cleaning contractor to comply with the law.
