Front Page News History 

Front Page News is a media industry leader reaching U.S. households through newspaper publishing, television and radio broadcasting and the Internet. Operations are concentrated in the nation’s minor markets, including Philadelphia, New York, New Jersey City, Los Angeles, Hopewell, VA and Harrisburg. The company was founded in 2000. That year, on May 19 2000, the Philadelphia Front Page News published its first online edition in a 3-bedroom apartment located at 5037 Walnut Street. The original press run consisted of stories about the first African-American Professional Wrestling Entertainment Company lead by former Philadelphia Eagles football player Skip Hamilton in the year 1998. Hamilton who played briefly for the Philadelphia Eagles under coach Buddy Ryan during the player strike era, later worked with Samuel Van Stone Downing sharing volunteer time with needy children. In 1998 Van Stone, who was writing for years on a local-wide and citywide level, began to organize solo the first edition of the Philadelphia Front Page News featuring Soul City Wrestling as the lead story. But, Stone’s newspaper was not a full newspaper just yet. Stone branched out on his own creating a magazine called Van Stone’s Digest. Van Stone’s Digest ran for two years ending up as a transformation from hard copy print to the first Black American published online newspaper about the people of Philadelphia, PA and Yeadon, PA and East Lansdowne, PA, and Camden, NJ, and Harrisburg, PA, and Lancaster, PA. The Philadelphia Front Page News located at 5023 Walnut Street began. 

In 2000, the Front Page News moved from West Philadelphia to a new office located at 509 Pembroke Avenue East Lansdowne, PA. Therein, Gerald McNeil, who was doing independent radio news and TV news, joined up with Van Stone Downing to manage Web Master production of the newspaper. The Front Page News was slowed down in 2002, when the alleged Great Judge Corruption raged through the Media Delaware County Courthouse, overseeing hearings in both East Lansdowne and Media city, the Front Page News was almost destroyed, due to Van Stone’s estranged spouse and Media Delaware County District Board of Judges Honorable Barry C. Dozor, Honorable Maureen F. Fitzpatrick and Honorable Michael F.X. Coll legal issues. 

In 2003 the Front Page News mixed community news with talk radio introducing the Van Stone Productions Foundation, Inc. Philly VSP TV/Radio Youth News. VSP TV/Radio represented West Philadelphia Van Stone Radio Station at the Front Page News. A full Internet powered radio station began to discuss Ex-offenders, the unjust imprisoned and civil rights. However, WVSR and The Front Page News came to a complete stop in September 27, 2004 when Van Stone was wrongfully imprisoned to Delaware County Prison, George Hill Prison, by both Judges Dozor and Fitzpartick. After Gerald McNeil and a few family friends of Stone frantically tried to bail Stone out of jail but to no success Stone was ordered to return to Delaware County Prison for 6 consecutive weekends followed by legal eviction from the East Lansdowne office. 

The Front Page News reappeared 18 days later from Stone’s September 27, 2004 wrongful imprisonment with an editorial declaring Media Delaware County Courthouse as allegedly corrupt. The newspaper’s founder, editor, publisher and owner, Van Stone, was exonerated by Philadelphia, Pennsylvania Family Court and led the city’s awareness on Judge Brutality, Anti-Domestic Violence and Lowering the Murder Rate in big cities interest. 

The Front Page News lead Van Stone to become an Icon dealing with political analyst stories. A native Philadlephian who first acquired an interest in newspaper companies in 1988, Stone gained full control of the newspaper in 2007 and guided it into social-welfare, educational and economical fighting tools for the under privileged and abused. 

Newspaper Reporter, Editor, and Community Activist Diane White, who is from Harrisburg, PA, came aboard the Front Page News during the strong restart in the same year of 2007. Philadelphia’s WVSR-AM Radio (1360.com) went on the air as its call letters reflecting the Philadelphia Front Page News’ renowned slogan, "Hear Yourself. Neediness and Freedom Must Be Heard.” 

The newspaper was an innovator from the start. It was first to feature the West Philadelphia Housing Authority West Park After School and Summer Program Future Investment newsletter insert, the Soul City Wrestling and the WVSR 90.5 pirate radio station Philadelphia. Braking new ground by introducing stories from the courtroom during the infamous 2002 through 2008 “Protection From Abuse “ and “Custody" trial" in Media Delaware County Courthouse.

Stories were covered very closely by the Investigative Reporter Team, (an Front Page News I-Team) uncovering alleged unfair treatment of African-Americans, women and children by Judges Dozor, Fitzpatrick and Coll based on classism and separatist. This resulted in rapid partnerships within the news community and Front Page News played the role corruption watchdog in a way that citizens can understand.

Focusing on just tires and how recycling tires in Philadelphia would be something to better community education and economic improvement for Black Americans, Greek Americans, Bangladesh Americans, Irish Americans, Jewish Americans and Latino Americans. Front Page News participation in production of Just Tires (Trash) into jobs also became good for youth in the community service and the school environment.

PFPN produced further stories showing Mayor Nutter that their stories on tire repair shops and the average citizen was help toward supporting clean energy as a way for proper trash removal. Recycling tire trash can be done using any type of clean energy. 

Stone’s Incorruptible Icon Status Helping Victims 

The story of Nancy Glover and Honorable Judge Maureen Fitzpatrick, Honorable Judge Barry C. Dozor, and Honorable Judge Michael F.X. Coll is one of almost unbelievable family court abuse and judge cruelty. In fact, the testimony of the defendant Mrs.Glover incriminates many others. Allegedly the others are certain Pennsylvania Justices at Media Delaware County Family Courthouse. Although there are currently 24 Delaware County Board of Judges, 19 District Court Judges 5 Senior District Court Judges, not to be confused with Delaware County Magistrate Justices. 

Allegations of blatant inconsiderateness in the blood of Judges Maureen F. Fitzpatrick, Barry C. Dozor, and Michael F.X. Coll are the norm. But according to a story covered by PFPN’s Van Stone, Gerald McNeil, James Sullivan, Special Investigator John H. Coleman, Jr Mrs. Glover about Fitzpatrick, putting it as respectfully as PFPN could, Judge Fitzpatrick’s behavior was inconsistent with fair citizenship. Newspaper Icon Van Stone met Judge Fitzpatrick. 

In several PFPN reports Van Stone wrote about how if someone told Fitzpatrick that she would be inconsistent to decide for the plan after attacking it, most likely she would attack any way. An article showed while a family plan is to save families, according to Glover, Fitzpatrick’s decision is most often a report full of inconsistencies ending in fear. Front Page News, with Van Stone Downing, reported how Glover was terrified from the memories of a 9MM automatic to her head and threats to kill the children. According to Nancy, her Judge, estranged husband and his girlfriend were allegedly systematically mentally torturing her. 

According to Nancy, her abuser stopped paying 5 months of bills & destroyed their heater. Fitzpatrick allowed an appraisal presented by estranged husband as factual during divorce proceedings based on a ride by from the street after the complete appraisal. Overlooked was an engineers report concerning the structural damage caused allegedly by her husband during domestic violence incidents reported to police into consideration worth $150,000.00. This too happened according to Glover. Cashed were all of Glover’s insurance checks and reimbursement checks since 2000. These included doctors’ checks deposited in the girlfriend’s account. There was obstruction of evidence about an attempt to get the deed to the additional property & sell it out from under Nancy with the help of a friend. PFPN with Van Stone Downing reported that in the end, Nancy alleges that Judge Fitzpatrick would not permit Nancy to speak or present any facts. And Nancy is to be removed from her home; she is disabled and uses a wheelchair, in less than two months. Nancy’s is on her way to being homeless and accompanied by her grandchild (Malia) and daughter (Amanda) who also has chronic medical conditions. 

Van Stone reported that when such unjust things like this happen, as is the normal in Media Delaware County Courthouse, Glover should have been allowed to file an expedition to the next level of the court where the hearing would be put back before a Judge that would allow her to fairly present here testimony. PFPN with Van Stone won praise for telling the story about Nancy’s complaints of having problems swallowing and that she was in pain from a broken collarbone were ignored by Judge Fitzpatrick. PFPN with Van Stone gained even more praise as the article continued telling about the next morning Judge Fitzpatrick seemed more concerned with watching TV then getting Mrs. Glover help. There was no more pleasure for Fitzpatrick to get from abusing the defendant so Nancy was ordered to come up with thousands of dollars to pay or else be evicted and see the house sold. Nancy could not get the loan so desperately needed to save her home. Mrs. Glover called Van Stone with the very credible story and so Stone offered not only to help her in any way that he could, making her story plain to the public. Van Stone soon made an offering to Glover to act as a co-signer on a loan, putting up my own house for her, if there is any legit lender that can help Nancy borrow up to $250,000.00 thousand dollars or else Glover would be homeless in one month. Furthermore, PFPN supported Glover’s push to become founder of an organization that fought for fair rights of families forced to enter family court in the U.S. Front Page News daily newspapers targeting urban commuters represent yet another growth initiative.
