Staten Island News Platform Media Placement
We welcome working with advertisers of all kinds, from individuals to Fortune 500 companies, and everyone in between. We welcome working with your in-house team or outside ad agency. If necessary, we can design an advertisement that works…one that is attractive to your audience and artful and aesthetically-pleasing, created by prestigious design school gradates with decades in the field, not a twenty-year-old playing with AI.
The Staten Island News Org: Nonpartisan and Fair Presentation
The Staten Islander News Organization is a nonpartisan entity. We do not support, or endorse, any politic party or viewpoint. We have editors and staff drawing from every political and ideological perspective. After all, this is the United States. We all think differently. That is a big positive.
We do not talk down to our audience, and are not trying to soft-sell anything.
The Staten Islander News Org: Everyone Has the Right To Be Heard
We respect the right of all views and perspectives to be published on our news platform, and welcome islanders to share their stories, bringing their voices to the fore. With the exception of content that encourages people to partake in violence, or views that promote anti-group bias based on prejudice of any type, or anything at all illegal, we publish most content. We welcome the endless array of multicultural ideas and philosophies co-existing out there in the wild in these United States, and Staten Island, New York, specifically!
Staten Island Social Media
The Staten Islander News platform at StatenIslander.org actually has a functional, and often utilized, social media sub-platform embedded within, permitting comments and vibrant discussion, right within the space of each story post, without the need to navigate away to mega-platforms like Facebook or Twitter (X). We have plans to expand the comment section and add a forum, and place both on a dedicated social media platform we will also operate.
Staten Island News Org History
The Staten Islander has been in operation since 2018, providing news to Staten Island that is relevant and interesting. Why are we here? Staten Islanders needed a choice. While we love the Advance, we wanted to do our own thing. And, two of the founders (who hadn’t known one another!) each grew up with Joan Gerstel in their close orbit, and thus the Staten island Register was always in the background. And so, the idea of a newspaper was never a seeming impossible project.
