Owners of new Inquirer Media Group a mix of young and old
  
  After operating The Inquirer Newspaper as a virtual one man show for over four years, Joe Parisi, co-publisher, along with his wife Luisa, are going in a totally new direction with their paper. The Parisi's have elected to recruit a team of junior and senior partners, each performing a unique function within the business, and they will be known as The Inquirer Media Group. The name of the newspaper will remain the same.
     Thanks to Art Crawford, several of the new junior partners represent Mount Vernon's younger generation, all highly educated and former members of the Genesis Group at Mount Vernon High School. Crawford, a former administrator at Mount Vernon High School ran the popular Genesis program at the high school and is now a senior partner with the The Inquirer Media Group, along with Bob Nurse.
     The Inquirer Media Group
plans to focus heavily on Mount Vernon's youth, and hopes to implement a scholarship program and journalist internship program at their earliest opportunity.
     Circulation of the Inquirer newspaper will include areas of the north Bronx, all of Mount Vernon, and parts of New Rochelle and Bronxville.
     Joe Parisi will be taping a television show twice monthly, and the tape will air on Mount Vernon cable television (channel 6). At times the tapes will be shown on cable television in Bronxville as well as Pelham. In addition, negotiations are ongoing to put together a weekly radio show on WXOX 1460 AM.
     Below is The Inquirer Media Group's table of organization:
  • Joe & Luisa Parisi, owners, publishers, editors and CEO's
  • Art Crawford, General Manager and COO
  • Robert E. Nurse, Executive Director, Business Operations & Business Development
  • Shemeka Headen, Director, Headquarters Administration
  • Teonda King, Director, Marketing, Sales & Market Development
  • Halima Muhammad, Marketing Representative
  • Candice Wright, Caribbean Sector Marketing Representative

     The Inquirer Media Group's home office will continue to be based in Pelham, until such a time that a Mount Vernon office if found.
