Micromedia Publications

Micromedia Publications, Inc. was founded in 1995 by Stewart Swann and Robyn Weber for the purpose of publishing high quality local weekly newspaper within New Jersey. Following the successful launch of The Manchester Times in April of that year, the company has since introduced The Berkeley Times (1996), The Jackson Times (2000), The Brick Times (2002), The Howell Times (2004) and The Toms River Times (2005). These publications have not only been vital sources of information for our readers, but have proven to be an indispensable means of dialogue through our Editorial and Letters To The Editor features. The first edition of The Manchester Times contained an editorial entitled "The Importance of Community," which has been published within the first edition of all our newspapers since that time. It is expressed the belief that the strength of our nation is founded upon the strength of our individual communities through "the simple associations we make in our community each and every day. As such, the editorial continued, "We believe the mission of a local newspaper should be to promote the highest ideals of community life," a mission we have tried to pursue faithfully through the years. Of course, we invite those visiting our website to share this experience with us. Our Digital Newspapers are all new and stocked full of exciting features!
