Riverdale Review
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Riverdale Review is a weekly newspaper serving the Riverdale section of the Bronx in New York City. It is published by the Metro North Media Group, which also publishes the weekly Bronx Press Review.
The Riverdale Review was initially launched in 1993 by publisher Andrew Wolf as an alternative to the Riverdale Press, the other local paper. There are several differences the casual observer can note between the publications. A few of these include: while the Press costs $.75, the Review is free; the Press tends toward taking a more liberal position on local and city politics than the Review; the Review is in tabloid format; the Review has a weekly political cartoon. Both newspapers are widely read in the community and influence local debate.
Publisher Andrew Wolf also writes a column focusing primarily on city education issues for the New York Sun. Associate editor John DeSio writes a column and blog [1] for the New York Press.
