At a time when many newspapers are cutting corners, Jim Mullin, Publisher and Editor, is expanding the reach of his freebie Biscayne Times. His paper is now available all the way to the North Miami Dade County-line. I looked at it this morning - last time I reported on Mulllin was April 2007 around when he became Publisher, almost 3 years ago. The paper has plenty of big ads and it is full-color. Must cost a small fortune to print. I always read Jack King and Frank Rollason's columns. Jack King wrote about news reporting online (unreliable) and on paper (St. Pete Times rocks) in this issue and Frank Rollason wrote about crooks in local government (a favorite subject of mine).
Anyway, it is good to see the paper succeeding in this market. I was happy when a menu fell out for "Urbannite Bistro." I always wanted to go to a restaurant in walking distance to the Arsht Center so I could park early and eat. This place is at 62 NE 14th Street. Worth a try. I wouldn't have heard of it if not for Biscayne Times. You can read the paper online if it is out of your reach.
Hope you have continued success Jim. I am glad you didn't leave Florida when your gig at New Times ended.

Jim Mullin has done a great job with "Biscayne Times". He deserves success.
Jack King is one of Miami's best columnists.
It has good content on the local scene. Not as trendy as some of the other monthly's...but in a good way.
We are very pleased to have the opportunity to advertise in The Biscayne Times. Jim- keep up the hard work and excellent coverage. Keep expanding that reach. E. Alexander, Urbanite Bistro
I think Frank Rollason is a stand up guy, its a pity and a sad commentary about most voters that he's not the commissioner, and BTW he's not David Sarnoff's grandson either.
Biscayne Blvd is back! Very much enjoy living on the upper eastside.
Hey, maybe Jim will emerge as a buyer when the MH closes its doors.
E Alexander - do we get a free glass of wine for first visit?
