Middletown in the Media

Last week Middletown was mentioned a few notable times in the state and national media.

In the August 5th Episode of Connecticut Public Radio's Where We Live, Middletown was used repeatedly as a good example of a city which had worked hard to create and maintain a viable Main Street and core city. You can listen to the episode here.

On Saturday, Barbara Ehrenreich published a powerful essay about how poverty now bestows criminality on people suffering from poverty. Middletown earns a fleeting mention for its attempts to ban food sharing by Food Not Bombs.
