Vermont Woman Experiences Village Voice Holiday Mishap
Kathryn Drury had about 40 Christmas gifts to ship. Procrastinating until the bitter end, she was forced to wrap all the presents in a rush one evening. When she ran out of traditional holiday paper, she improvised with a stack of old newspapers. It wasn't until the next day, after the gifts were mailed, that it dawned on Drury that her ersatz wrapping paper was the Village Voice, home to "pages and pages of personal ads, including gay porn, leather, punishment, phone sex and escort services," Drury tells The Burlington Free Press. "I had just sent boxes of presents to my husband's very Catholic family adorned with naked ladies in string bikinis and muscular, well-oiled men in jock straps."

Gambit Weekly Asks AAN Members to Run Ads for 'Best Of' Issue
Gambit Weekly's annual "Best of New Orleans" issue was printed but never distributed, thanks to Hurricane Katrina. Gambit printed an abbreviated list of winners in October, but the paper received many requests for the full issue. The Gambit staff decided to sell the issue for $10 per copy, with proceeds benefiting The Foundation for Entertainment Development and Education, Inc., a nonprofit organization that funds projects and programs that acknowledge the importance of the performing arts to the New Orleans area. In a press release, publisher Margo DuBos said, "We hope that interested AAN members will run an ad promoting the sales of the issue on a space-available basis." The ad can be viewed here; for a different size or file format, contact Rebecca Thiel at rebeccat@gambitweekly.com.

Phoenix Media Plans Web Site Overhaulnew
The owner of alt-weeklies in Boston, Providence and Portland, Maine, will launch new sites for each paper on Jan. 1, according to the Boston Business Journal. Phoenix Media executive vice president Bradley Mindich says the $200,000 upgrade is a smart investment in light of the growth of Internet advertising. "In five years, it is highly probable that, as a converged media company, the Web could be the largest ad revenue generator for us," says Mindich. The Business Journal also reports that Phoenix competitor The Weekly Dig will launch a new site in March modeled after Boston.com but targeting the 18- to 34-year-old demographic.
