2nd ANNUAL
METRO LIFETIME ACHIEVEMENT AWARD
The Voters Induction
A great choice by our voters this year.
After 18 years of appearing in the McCarty Metro print, video and
on-line versions, this character has set our readers straight on how
cushy this generation of grand-brats has it over the previous
generation.
The McCarty Metro
is proud to induct...
JERRY'S WORLD
The Editor's Induction
The original editor and developer of
the name and idea of the McCarty Metro. He first introduced the
newspaper in the mid 1960's and created the headquarters under the
basement steps on Sussex. He paved the way for future editors like
myself to continue his vision of a family newsletter.
