Jersey City residents in chromium-contaminated areas not more likely to develop cancer, study says
Jersey Journal. 12/02/2010

This is followed by a synopsis of a longer JJ article. The synopsis states that there was no link found between oral, anal, and esophageal cancers so chromium-contamination=

Oh, but wait a sec- the full article says:

The 2008 assessment found that lung cancer rates from 1979 to 2003 were higher in areas closest to the historic locations of sites that had been contaminated with chromium.

That's some fine reporting there, guys

STOP HITTING PEOPLE WITH GIRLS!

5 juveniles club Jersey City woman and drag her into Target parking lot before robbing her in 3 a.m. incident
Tuesday, October 05, 2010

Five juveniles struck a Jersey City woman in the head with a piece of wood and a girl then dragged the victim into a Downtown parking lot, where they robbed her of $550 in cash and property early Sunday morning, officials said yesterday.

Officers dispatched to the robbery scene at 14th Street and Washington Boulevard at about 3 a.m. spoke to the 33-year-old Grove Street woman, who said she was walking home when she noticed the juveniles walking toward her, reports said.

A boy broke away from the group and as the victim passed him, he grabbed her from behind, reports said, adding that she was knocked to the ground when a second boy struck her in the head with a 11/2-foot-long piece of wood.

A girl then dragged the victim across the black top into the Target parking lot, where they stole her handbag containing her cell phone, credit cards and wallet that contained $180, reports said.

Anyone with information on the crime is asked to call the Jersey City police tip line at (201) 547-JAIL.

Not a headline, in the copy, a Freudian slip perhaps, but still notable:

Stevens professor to speak on political corruption at Hoboken Public Library

The Hoboken Public Library kicks off its Fall Lecture Series tonight on a topic familiar to many of us in the state of New Jersey, let alone Hudson County - especially considering the charges brought upon former assemblyman L. Healy Smith and former Jersey City councilman Mariano Vega this year.

New Bayonne assemblyman pushes to restore cuts to women's health centers
Published: Thursday, September 23, 2010, 9:05 AM

What the article actually says is that the new assemblyman wants to restore funding to women's health centers. The exact opposite of what the headline suggests.
