More good news from our CEO
The Middletown Press staff received a letter from our CEO, John Paton, last week.
"I am committed to investing in our future," he wrote. "We will invest in our people through training and in upgrading our technology to make the neccessary changes to take this company into the future and we will make sure all employees share in our growth."
As someone who has been with the JRC for more than 5 years now, I have to say Paton is a breath of fresh air.
If anyone can help small, local newspapers transform into a future world - it will be him.
"Going forward we will be a team," Paton writes in his letter. "When the Company wins, the employees win. We will win together."
Like I said in a previous post here, these are exciting times to be in the newspaper business. Everything is changing quickly, and yes, it is sometimes very stressful, but think about all the new, cool things we get to do.

Blah blah blah- what a bunch of hooey! The bottom line here is that the Middletown Press is terrible and doesn't deserved to be called a newspaper! It is either police blotters or articles that are extended police blotters! Your reporters can't spell nor can they proofread. One recent article mentioned the Alford Doctrine,and it was spelled "Alfred" Doctrine! How embarrassing! I've lived in the Middletown area for 30 years and remember when the Press was a real newspaper. Since you people took it over it has become an insult to the city and to responsible journalism in general! Do us all a favor, either sell it to real journalists or fold it!
if this upsets you, don't read the paper or the blog
Anonymous 2-19-10 doesn't get it. Of course you can decide not to read the paper or blog, but the point is that this is a newspaper and it is the responsibility of the CEO, editor and reporters to know how to write clearly and with accuracy. That is called 'journalism'. If you want to be a journalist, then go to college and learn how to be one.
if poor journaliam upsets you please don't tune in to channel 3 news with al terzi, he can't get anything right with or without a teleprompter
