If you\u2019re reading this, I know you\u2019re a fan of City & State and First Read.<\/p>\n

Almost exactly 20 years ago, in June 2006, a new publication was born in New York City: \u201cCity Hall\u201d newspaper published its first monthly issue and quickly became the darling of the whole political world in the five boroughs.<\/p>\n

What\u2019s happened in the intervening two decades is nothing short of a miracle: a multimedia company growing by leaps and bounds each year producing new products that are all must-reads and events that are must-attend.<\/p>\n

City & State New York, the successor to City Hall, has not only turned into an award-winning weekly political magazine, but we\u2019ve also added three daily e-newsletters: First Read (7 a.m.), First Read Tonight (6 p.m.), Albany Agenda (midday) and a weekly newsletter, NYN First Read, covering the important nonprofit sector in the city.<\/p>\n

City & State has become a powerhouse throughout New York state, and has brought its successful model to Pennsylvania and a political news service in Florida. We produce over 60 events each year \u2013 from policy summits to Power List showcases to Thought Leader dinners as well as custom events for corporations and advocacy groups alike.<\/p>\n

But because we never rest on our laurels, we\u2019re launching another exciting news and insider information product on Tuesday: \u201cHeard Around Town.\u201d<\/p>\n

If you like First Read each day, you\u2019re going to LOVE \u201cHeard Around Town.\u201d<\/p>\n

Sent to subscriber inboxes on Tuesdays and Fridays, it\u2019ll have the juiciest scoops of the week, the stories behind the story, the latest gossip and whispers, as well as other vital data for elected officials, their staffs and the entire New York state political universe.<\/p>\n

An individual subscription is available for $17\/month, and we also offer group packages for teams of five or 10 to ensure your entire office stays informed. Heard Around Town will provide need to know insights at a small fraction of the cost of other political e-newsletters.\u00a0<\/p>\n

If you\u2019ve followed City & State\u2019s growth the past 20 years \u2013 or even just a portion of that time \u2013\u00a0 you know that our award winning journalism team, headed up by the ubiquitous Editor-in-Chief Jeff Coltin, consistently serves up well-reported, well-sourced and well-written stories every single day. That\u2019s why we recently won nine journalism and design awards at the New York Press Association annual awards event.<\/p>\n

To commemorate 20 years of excellence in political journalism, we invite you to subscribe to \u201cHeard Around Town\u201d today. Your support ensures the continued growth of our award-winning reporting, allowing us to meet our audience’s hunger for accurate and unbiased coverage.\u00a0<\/p>\n

I hope to see you on our subscriber list by Tuesday, May 19, so you can enjoy \u201cHeard Around Town\u2019s\u201d debut issue.<\/p>\n
