NY Gun Clubs are asking everyone to cancell their subcriptions and advertising immediately to GANNET owned companies.....as per FOX.

Some context please? What's the reasoning? Is it that Gannett funds anti-gun organizations or something similar?

Gannet is the parent company of the newspaper in NY that printed the names and addresses of gun owners.

Wha? Asbury Park Press is one of the better news agencies, not like the star ledger.

Thought you would know.............they own the Journal News in NY and are publishing all the names, address and phone numbers of legal firearm owners in Rockland Co......and want to do the same in Putnam......they also are considering the Star ledger here in NJ.......

 

GANNETT has hired armed guards in NY for their so called protection..........

Gannet is the parent company of the newspaper in NY that printed the names and addresses of gun owners.

 

Thank you, now that makes sense.

Cancell subscriptions and advertising as per NY Gun Clubs request.................IMO......before they attempt this here in NJ.

Well I don't get any of those, but if I see them at work I'll throw them out. Recycle them

That list above covers half of NJ at least! In middlesex county every daily is a Gannett paper, except the Star Ledger (and the Ledger only has a section with little news and some obits).

IMO...............Toss'em all.

They want tp publish your names and addresses here in New Jersey as well............

yes they do

They still make newspapers?

NJ has a law barring them from doing it. Oddly enough NJ got that right.

I think the NY law specifically states the permit with be considered public record, so it might just be that the absence of such language in NJ law means that the information is not public record. But, that's just a guess.

Maybe we are not as well protected as we think. I couldn't find anything in the statutes, but the NJAC does state that applications etc are not public records, but AFAIK, this doesn't necessarily carry the weight of law.

 

N.J.A.C. 13:54-1.15 Confidentiality of background investigations, permits, firearms

identification cards, licenses, certifications, certificates, forms of register, registration

statements and applications

Any background investigation conducted by the chief of police, the Superintendent or the

county prosecutor, of any applicant for a permit, firearms identification card license, or registration,

in accordance with the requirements of this chapter, is not a public record and shall not be disclosed

to any person not authorized by law or this chapter to have access to such investigation, including

the applicant. Any application for a permit, firearms identification card, or license, and any

document reflecting the issuance or denial of such permit, firearms identification card, or license,

and any permit, firearms identification card, license, certification, certificate, form of register, or

registration statement, maintained by any State or municipal governmental agency, is not a public

record and shall not be disclosed to any person not authorized by law or this chapter to have access

to such documentation, including the applicant, except on the request of persons acting in their

governmental capacities for purposes of the administration of justice.

 

Maybe I missed it in the statutes - anybody find anything similar to the NJAC clause above in Chapter 39 or 58?

 

Adios,
