Ledger ending print edition

First paying job from age 11 to 14. Delivering it daily M-F with a bag and my dog walking almost a half mile to my first house. Steepest street in Cedar Grove Lakewood Ave. Saturday my dad would drive me, then go to breakfast. Just the two of us. The Sunday inserts came Saturday too, then I filled them. My dad would drive me as those 30 papers were heavy to carry. My dad taught me work ethic as he knew I did M-F on my own.

By the way, I haven’t read a hard copy in 25 years. Once they started charging for online, I stopped reading it there too.

This is a very sad day. At one point the Star Ledger had the best sports and editorial pages. It was the example of what a newspaper should be. Over time the paper changed as the new owners focused on cutting costs and fired many great writers. The Ledger has been dead for awhile. Today was just the wake.
Jerry Izenberg was such a great read.

NCAA East Regional 2025

I wonder if this means this year the corridor from Penn Station will be open and more police presence throughout the season? It was pretty scary after the Monmouth Game walking back to Penn Station and getting suckerpunched as a victim of the knockout game in the back of the head and spraining my wrist 2 days before my Clinical Piano Final. (There was a second incident that night after me, another person, same assailant.) I still go to the games, but after either my parents drive me after to Metro Park or I drive myself.

I just don't want this to happen to anyone else as they want people to come to Newark, enjoy the game, the restaurants and should be made safer for us.
