Josh has been asked to run his film column ONE HARSH CRITIC on the new
community newspaper Coast Gopher.

The Coast Gopher is a web-only newspaper that offers the familiarity
of traditional print news combined with the useful conveniences of the
internet. It reports news that are of local relevance and interest,
such as local government activities, city council meetings and
decisions, school news, local sports including AYSO and Little League,
cultural events, exhibits in galleries, museums, zoos and aquariums.

Local trivia and a reader-participation feature called "Urban Follies"
are catering to those who enjoy learning the little-known facts about
their neighborhood, as well as the odd happenings that result from
metropolitan life meeting the human element.

The Coast Gopher is also a platform for local businesses to advertise
their goods and services. Advertisements can be placed

throughout the editorial content pages and in a special section called
"Solutions", a showcase for home and business service providers such
as handyman, plumbers, electricians, bookkeeping, cleaning etc.

These components make the Coast Gopher the perfect everyday companion
for people living in the communities of Carson, Harbor City, Lomita,
Long Beach, Rancho Palos Verdes, San Pedro, Torrance and Wilmington.
Here families can learn the news that are important to them, and
households will find the services they need from local providers.

The Coast Gopher. It's like having a new best friend!
