CJR Extends Laurels to Three AAN Membersnew
In its summer issue, Columbia Journalism Review tenders "laurels" to three AAN members – The Village Voice, the Nashville Scene, and Tampa’s Weekly Planet – for “good old-fashioned criticism of the big boys in town.” The journalism-mag crowns the beneficiaries with a left-handed compliment: “Who says the alternative press has sold its birthright for a mess of personal ads and restaurant reviews?”

The Tennessean Jabs Nashville Scenenew
When the Nashville Scene ran a five-part
series skewering the Tennessean, the local
daily countered with a string of full-page, color ads
belittling the circulation figures of its alt-weekly
competitor. Tennessean Publisher Craig Moon
tells AJR that the Scene's take-out had nothing
to do with his decision to run the ads. The Scene
published its own ads in response and Editor/
Publisher Bruce Dobie warns darkly: "Never
pick on someone smaller than you."
