When I attended DMWF North America 2026 at the Javits Center in New York, there was little doubt about what would dominate the conversation. Marketing leaders, technology companies and AI platforms had gathered to talk about what is next for the industry, and AI came up everywhere: alongside customer journey, customer insights, search visibility, content […]
In the heart of Harlem, the Francophone community of St. Joseph of the Holy Family Parish marked ten years of faith, fellowship and cultural connection with a celebration that brought together Catholics from across New York and beyond. The community has grown over the past decade around the ministry of Father Joseph Kinda, a priest […]
At this point, getting removed from Love Island USA for something you said years before entering the villa has practically become another part of the show. There is Casa Amor. There is Movie Night. There is the public vote. And now, apparently, there is the moment when people comb through every podcast, Instagram Story and […]
For years, Hunter Biden was not really a person in the public imagination. He was a punchline. Crack. Hookers. Motels. The laptop. Burisma. The pictures nobody ever needed to see. A gun charge.

The auditorium […]
Here is the uncomfortable truth most marketers are only beginning to grasp: what is changing is not simply the channel, but the cognitive process through which consumers make decisions. For more than two decades, the dominant model was search. Individuals would go to Google, formulate a query, scan a hierarchy of links, compare options across […]
Thousands of New York City doormen, superintendents, porters, and other residential building workers have voted to authorize a strike, setting up what could become the city’s first walkout of these workers in 35 years if a contract agreement is not reached by midnight Monday. The workers are represented by 32BJ SEIU, which says roughly 34,000 […]
The promise of modern financial technology has long been framed around access. More tools, more data, more visibility. Yet, despite this proliferation, financial anxiety remains pervasive, and poor decision-making continues to undermine long-term stability for millions of individuals. This contradiction reveals a fundamental misunderstanding of the problem. Financial difficulty is not primarily a failure of […]
Mayor Zohran Mamdani and Governor Kathy Hochul announced a proposal to create New York State’s first pied-à-terre tax, a measure aimed at raising revenue by taxing high-value secondary properties owned by people whose primary residence is outside New York City.
