Just what L.A. needs, another local arts and entertainment rag. I'm beginning to think that the…read morewaste created by the publishing industry of Los Angeles is responsible for 90% of all global warming. Do we really need anymore free newspapers telling us what's going on in the city? If you asked the publishers at Southland Publishing, the answer would be a resounding YES. So be it, I guess. At least New Angeles has a strong design aesthetic, which really is the main reason I look at any of these mags anyway. It's not a bad looking book. It's hard to figure the exact emphasis on New Angeles, but it appears to be more arts and entertainment with a tad bit of local color, business and politics, but nothing as politically bent as some other Weeklies. For a monthly, it seems a bit sparse, nothing I would go out of my way to read, but if I happen past it on my way to the local eatery at lunch, I'll pick it up. They do have some pretty pictures to look at, but you can get enough info off the website without having to look through the ads.

There are two Hitchhiker's Guides to Koreatown…read more Ji Coupon has a competitor and companion. Red Coupon is very much identical, in the way most Koreatown business mimic one another to the point where the shops and services oversaturate a single block. Red Coupon is another letter-size coupon book printed in four colors. It has an advertiser overlap with Ji Coupon. It's also in Korean with a limited sprinkling of English. It's even available in many of the same Korean businesses. Red Coupon, though, does not have an online component, and if there is one, it's hard to find. Either Red or Ji books are handy for exploring K-Town. Transit access in Koreatown: Metro Red/Puple Line, Metro Rapid lines 710, 714, 720, 754 and 757, and Metro local lines 10/11/48, 14, 16/316, 18, 20/21, 26/51/52/352, 28/83/84/328, 30/31/330, 66/366, 200, 201, 204, 206, 207, 209, 210 and 603; LADOT DASH Wilshire Center/Koreatown and Wilshire Center/Hollywood, and Commuter Express Line 534; and Foothill Transit Line 481.

I called about 8 different local papers to get their prices and deadlines re: publishing my Fictitious Business Name Statement (aka DBA) and only 3 of them even bothered to call back. Ellen at THE PASADENA WEEKLY was not only the first but she knew her business backwards and forwards. Since everyone was basically the same price it was customer service which made my decision for me. And when I sent in the paperwork she noticed a mistake made by the County Recorder's Office and got right back to me about it. After 2 follow-up calls a piece, I have yet to even hear from The Pasadena Star News and those other papers. Call Ellen and use her for all your FBN needs in LA County!
