NEW PROVIDENCE, NJ – Rebecca Greene, veteran reporter, and Gail Gordon, corporate lawyer, have launched TAPinto Fair Lawn/Glen Rock, offering hyperlocal coverage in municipal government, education and happenings around town.

TAPinto.net, which now reaches 7 million readers throughout New Jersey and lower New York state during the year, was founded in October 2008 by Michael and Lauryn Shapiro who sought to provide their town’s residents with an all-online, objective, independent, daily local newspaper.

Michael Shapiro met the two women separately: Gordon, a publisher-in-the-making, and Greene, an editor. After hearing their stories, he realized it was a good match. Gordon provides advertising and business structure support, while Greene manages day-to-day operations, with full control of editorial.
