wicked local newton | Newton MA News and Politics Blog

I don’t want to diminish the importance of the news about Saturday’s explosion and subsequent discovery of a second devise in New York City and others in New Jersey since.

But this screen shot — showing Wicked Local Newton’s home page taken on Monday morning — is not what I’m looking for when I visit my hometown newspaper’s web site.  

All of the WickedLocal sites recently underwent a major redesign. Let’s hope this isn’t an indication of it’s future. Dozens, perhaps hundreds, of news sites will cover this story better.

Newton is what the TAB does best and our city can’t afford to lose this valued watchdog and platform.
