CP FAQ: Where, oh where, have my listings gone?

POSTED: Wednesday, January 28, 2009, 4:41 PM
Filed Under: The City Paper

We've got some explaining to do. Last month, the Arts Agenda section vanished from the paper. It didn't even leave a note. At the same time, the listings for galleries, museums, readings/book signings and performing arts suddenly started appearing in the Agenda section.

So what gives? Arts Agenda and Agenda got married. (Actually, I guess you'd call it "eloping," since they did it slyly.) It makes sense if you think about it — before, it was unclear why there was both an Arts section and an Arts Agenda section. Now there's only one. And besides, they didn't even have to change last names when they got married.

But I'm done anthropomorphizing newspaper sections. The important point here is that there are often fewer listings in the print version of City Paper than before. Sometimes you may not see "Adults, etc." or "Volunteers" in print — but they will always, always be available online at citypaper.net/agenda_search. I thought that most people knew about our online listings, but then I got inundated with e-mails from people who thought we had flushed them down the toilet. We haven't, so please let your friends who aren't Internet heads know: They'll always be alive and well right here on the Web.

[...] laid off some folks as well (most under-reported local media story in recent memory, natch). CP is gutting their listings sections willy-nilly, and PW oughta give up the ghost on that one entirely. There’s not even any Brezny up in this [...]
