Talk:The Phoenix (newspaper)

message: There's no article for the Providence edition (which is only slightly different from the Boston edition), and the seperate websites for the editions are gone, now redirecting to The Phoenix's website. With that in mind, I think it'd be best to move this to The Phoenix (newspaper) or something similar and change the article to discuss both versions of the publication. -- LGagnon 02:32, 25 January 2006 (UTC)
thread_title: Moving article

message: While I appreciate more work going into this article, I think we should have some sources added whenever such a large amount of new and very specific info is added to the article. It's standard procedure, after all. -- LGagnon 04:57, 9 August 2006 (UTC)

thread_title: Fair use rationale for Image:Phoenix logo.jpg

message: The film was removed and I am putting it back in with the IMDB reference.  You will see that Steve Brown, the Publisher of the Providence Phoenix is the second name on the list of characters.  If you would like I can add another link to the trailer so you can actually see the guy.  The Phoenix is a major part of the film and has a chapter in the dvd dedicated to it.
Here is where Steve Brown is listed as the Publisher of the Providence Phoenix http://thephoenix.com/About/<ref>
And here is where he is listed in IMDB <ref>http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1455623/
On the imdb page you can also watch a trailer and see the 2 people who work for the Phoenix, one the Publisher of the Providence Phoenix and one a sales woman, who says "The Adult Section pays my mortgage".You Can't Clap with One Hand (talk) 02:17, 30 July 2009 (UTC)
thread_title:  Happy Endings? 

message: This article doesn't mention when the Boston Phoenix itself became a free paper (in the 1990's?) due to falling circulation. Maybe people pick it up for the arts listings when they're already out and throw out the rest of the paper, which is bulkier than Boston's 2 big metropolitan dailies.

thread_title:  When did it become free? 

message: This article improperly mixes defunct and extant publications in a confusing way, notably including the first sentence, which uses the past tense to refer to all of the publications. The section on the Boston Phoenix is remarkably light on the many well-known journalists who worked there and such big scoops as breaking the Boston Archdiocese priest sexual abuse cover-up. All of that can be found by Googling. Jtcarpet (talk) 03:01, 29 December 2013 (UTC)
