Former BJ advertising vice president Mitch Allen just gave birth to
the Medina Weekly News, which says it will stress community rather than
conflict.
He posted:
“I’m keeping my name out of the masthead so there’s less confusion
with Mimi Magazine,” whose more expansive name began as Mimi Vanderhaven’s Fabulous Buys.
But the Medina masthead lists Michael Mast (Mast in the masthead!) as president, Medina native and
Medina High graduate Kevin McManusm who worked for The Post Newspapers, as editor,
Karl Gerhard as senior marketing consultant and Rick Festi as circulation
manager.
None is listed among in the BJ Alumni Directory that former BJ reporter and Guild chapter chair Paula Schleis compiles. Mitch is.
The 20-page first issue dealt with racial equity, former Chippewa
Lake amusement park becoming a public parkland and a food/restaurant column by
Karl Gerhard.
Kevin McManus wrote an article about the coronavirus situation for
the food service industry.
Medina County Fair director Stuart Neal writes a Garden Gate column
about gardening and flowery plants.
Carole Liney, FDN-Practioner in Medina, writes a column about
Healthy Lifestyles.
Howard Hanna Realtor Janet Gommel, Medina County Board of Realtors
president, wrote about the Medina Fiber broadband network.
The publication is loaded with ads and classifieds. Natch. That's Mitch's life and career to a T.
Mitch teamed up with the best food writer in BJ history, Jane Snow,
almost a decade ago for her See Jane Cook Internet newsletter.
Mitch’s ancestry is English/Irish/Scottish.
