Shepherd Express Names Vogel to Head Web and Advertising Sales; Announces New Reader Initiatives

Milwaukee, WI (PRWEB) July 2, 2007

Celebrating 25 years in Milwaukee, Shepherd Express will launch new community discussion sites later this year under the direction of citizen media veteran, Andy Vogel. Shepherd-Express.com’s local Web sites will operate to keep communities informed about local events and issues in their neighborhoods using tools such as blogs, wikis, photo galleries and events calendars.

“As we enter the 2008 political season, greater access to online tools for more informed and reasoned debate on the topics of the day are needed,” said Louis Fortis, Publisher and Editor-in-Chief of Shepherd Express. “I’m pleased to be able to add Andy’s passion for Milwaukee and online community building to ours. Milwaukeeans want to be able to express opinions that matter to them within their community, and this will add another option for our advertisers seeking to reach one of the most politically aware reader groups in Wisconsin,” Fortis added.

Vogel, formerly Director of Digital Strategy for the Journal Sentinel and General Manager of Backfence.com, adds unique experience from dot com start-ups like cars.com and traditional media companies like Gannett and Detroit Newspapers. He has held several senior level advertising, business development, technology marketing and sales positions in the software, Internet, automotive retailing and newspaper industries.

For years, Vogel has been blogging on the state of interactive media and marketing in Milwaukee and was the Founder of the Milwaukee Interactive Marketing Association. Vogel has won numerous advertising awards, including the NAA’s New Media Edge Award for best advertising campaign, and is a frequent judge for interactive advertising awards.

About Shepherd Express:

Shepherd Express was founded in 1982 and is the only alternative news-weekly in the Milwaukee area. Using investigative reporting, satire and an emphasis on high-quality writing, Shepherd Express went from a monthly to a weekly beginning in 1988. The paper prints 72,000 issues a week, reaching 244,500 readers, almost 20 percent of the metro market. Shepherd-express.com reaches an additional 90,000 unique visitors each month.

The Shepherd Express offers in-depth analysis and coverage of trends and developments in the urban environment through investigative reporting, commentary and feature stories. The approach is to put a different perspective on the issues that challenge a Midwest urban area in the 21st century — education, race relations, transportation, economics, environment and health.

Shepherd Express’ news scope doesn’t stop at the city line, as the paper has won awards for environmental reporting on issues that concern the entire state. It has been recognized many times over the years as “Best Music Newspaper” by the Wisconsin Area Music Awards.

In the field of entertainment, Shepherd Express is Milwaukee’s guide to local music, arts, movies, dining and high culture. It also has the most complete calendar of events listings in town. Shepherd Express publishes the official gate guide to America’s largest music festival, Summerfest. Shepherd Express is also the founder of the Milwaukee International Film Festival, and publisher of the annual Inside Milwaukee City Guide, a comprehensive guide to food, festivals, music, shopping, and life in metropolitan Milwaukee.

The Shepherd Express remains one of America’s few locally owned alternative newsweeklies. It has been published since 1997 by Louis Fortis, a Ph.D. economist, international consultant, and former member of the Wisconsin State Assembly.

My Wife & Kids – The Fellowship Of The Baby (Part 1 Of 2)

When an overwhelmed Jr. thinks he is not smart enough to take care of his own son, Michael tells Jr. that “Jr., Jr.” is a “magic baby,” and that every time he holds him, it will make Jr. smarter. The ploy works, but in the process Jr. becomes somewhat arrogant with his new-found knowledge, so Michael brings Franklin in so that the two geniuses can match wits. Meanwhile, Kady catches Claire sneaking back into her bedroom after hours and threatens to tell their parents, unless Claire does some favors for her.

If all major online news media starts to charge, will you pay up, or simply turn to alternative media?

http://www.ft.com/cms/s/0/7f6edc2c-821f-11de-9c5e-00144feabdc0.html

Most major news sites seem a bit biased, but I’ve found that I can generally get a good view of an issue by reading about it on several sites.

In the event that all major online media DOES start to charge for news, do you plan on subscribing? Or do you think that’s likely to cause a rise in alternative media looking for a way to break into the market on advertising revenues only?

Good question ! If it could be included in my monthly internet bill. Like pay channel are on my cable bill, I would.
I trust my provider to cancel subscriptions when I ask, But I don’t trust a lot of the online sites, themselves.

Mainstream news media doing its job?

Just curious for your thoughts. How much do you trust mainstream television news, and news papers…. Would you seek out alternative news sources, or do you just not care? I know there are polls, but I’d like to see some narratives.

I suspect that they don’t.
Money and advertising prevents them from reporting the truth about pollution, business abuses, lawsuits, etc… The fact that most media outlets are owned by a cooperative oligarchy means that we’ll never hear any news that isn’t pro-business or at least sympathetic to business.
Our masters rule through commercialism. We are domesticated animals whose purpose is the consumption of materialistic garbage. Our whole world is based on rich white men brainwashing us into buying plastic junk made by slaves overseas so that they can steal the fruits of our labor.
We have been stripped of all the things that truly matter: companionship, community and intimacy. These things have been taken from us because our free time has been taken from us. We work constantly just to obtain the basic inputs necessary for survival. We are so exhausted from our efforts that the only enjoyable thing we have the energy or time for is TV or shopping.
The "news" is just part of the system that controls us.
Think about politics. Democrat vs. Republican vs. Centrist; does this truly cover the realm of political ideas? To say this is the equivalent to saying the religion is Methodist vs. Baptist vs. Lutheran. Certainly, there is more to choose from in religion than these three relatively similar sects. But when people are exposed to politics on TV, they seem to accept this narrowing of ideas.

Our news fails. They sell us what they tell us we want. We never get what we need: truth.
Journalism, done properly, is a SCIENCE. It is the science of data mining, of searching for the context of the data, of seeing the historical narrative and most importantly being objective.
The "liberal" bias that the news agencies are accused of is usually just an attack leveled at any news item that achieves this scientific goal.
