I often see it at the bank. It\u2019s the only free paper I see around here, and it tells you what is happening around the neighborhood. The people I see in the Inquiring Photographer; it tells you who they are and their thoughts on a particular issue. Sometimes, I see Raven in it who works here. It would tell you what\u2019s going on around the neighborhood, that\u2019s the most important thing, because there is no other paper and I don\u2019t watch the news, so this was how I\u2019d get my news.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Sonia DeCicco,<\/p>\n<p>Norwood<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.norwoodnews.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/Inq_Photo-3.jpg\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-137067 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/Inq_Photo-3-300x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"300\"  \/><\/a>MARIO DEBONA, BEDFORD Park <br \/>Photo by David Greene<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI see the paper in all the stores around the neighborhood.

It\u2019s how I would find out about a lot of local events. Sometimes I would see people I know in the Inquiring Photographer, and it would be interesting to see the response of people I would not talk politics with, and that was interesting to read their views. I have been reading the paper since moving into the area in the late 1980s. It was also interesting to see the opinions of local people addressing national issues.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Chris Perkins,<\/p>\n<p>Norwood<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"&#13; By DAVID GREENE TONY ENAMORADO, NORWOODPhoto by David Greene\u00a0 This week, ahead of the final edition of&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":332951,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[38],"tags":[128,9,24,63,129,131,130],"class_list":["post-332950","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-the-bronx","tag-bronx","tag-new-york","tag-new-york-city","tag-nyc","tag-the-bronx","tag-the-bronx-headlines","tag-the-bronx-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/332950","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=332950"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/332950\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/332951"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=332950"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=332950"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=332950"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
