Top Stories For April

If last month’s favorite stories were a novel, it would be Crime and Punishment. Well, actually just crime, since we don’t yet have a resolution of either the bank robbery at the Wells Fargo on Bloomfield Avenue or the house burglaries that have been popping up around Verona.

There’s never much in the way of crime in Verona, which may be the reason why it was a fascination for readers. We’d also like to draw prospective advertisers’ attention to the fact that three of our story categories–Schools, Sports and Real Estate–were top destinations for readers in April. While our readers still spend a lot of time on the home page, they are increasingly learning to hone right in on the news that interests them the most. And while the Election Guide was near the bottom of the top stories in April, the statistics so far for May indicate that it will be among the top reads for this month.
