On July 1, two articles by independent journalist Krystal Knapp appeared on this website without her knowledge or permission.  I have apologized to Krystal and removed those articles, but I feel I still owe her, and AllPrinceton’s readers, a more thorough explanation of why this happened.


Including an interview with Governor Chris Christie

NJTV is NJN's new identity. The old NJN ceased to exist at midnight yesterday. Control over New Jersey's only public broadcasting TV station is now in the hands of WNET, a New York based public media station.

Author(s): 

6/28/2011 update:  The New York public broadcaster WNET is set to take over NJN on July 1, after the New Jersey Senate last night failed to pass a resolution that would have blocked the deal.

See NJN reporter Michael Arons, reporting on the NJN vote, and bidding farewell to NJN viewers.


It's official:  Governor Christie announced the decision to hand over NJN to WNET.

The weird part is that WNET gets $4million in the bargain.
