Newsletter: Jan. 17

A NEW DAY…
In the never-make-yourself-the-news department, there’s this: Pam Frederick (above) has taken over the Tribeca Citizen. See her (my) first post here, and Erik Torkells’ announcement about that same news here (read Erik’s first, if chronology matters). And one of those posts came with cake.
Also, if you skipped a newsletter, you can peruse Erik’s TCQ&A here.
