Who We Are

Jennifer Wroblewski
Editor
Jennifer Wroblewski was an aspiring writer at the tender age of four, when she would design and create her own newspaper using photos she clipped out of different magazines. As a high school student, Wroblewski was always an avid reader and went on to study at Western New England College in Springfield, where she graduated in 2006 with a Bachelor of Arts degree in English literature. There, she joined the newspaper, The Westerner, working her way up to become the paper’s editor during her junior year. After relinquishing the coveted editor position, Wroblewski went on to intern for The Wilbraham Hampden Times, one of Turley Publications’ newspapers. Upon completing her internship and graduating from WNEC, Wroblewski was hired as full-time reporter for Turley’s Palmer-based newspaper, The Journal Register.
Now, as editor of Agawam Advertiser News, she is able to focus on Agawam and Feeding Hills. When not sleuthing on assignment, Wroblewski can be found at the local library with a stack of books in hand or wistfully listening to piano compilations and tickling the ivories of her friend's baby grand.

Tim Kane
Executive Editor, Turley Publications
A 20-year veteran at several daily and weekly newspapers in Massachusetts, Tim has been a part of the Turley team for almost four years now. He leads the company's editorial department for 15 weekly newspapers. He entered the trade with the goal to make a difference in the world by serving as a public informant and seeking the truth—and continues to work by that guiding principle today. His favorite assignment was breaking a series of stories in Ashland, Mass. about one man's battle with cancer and his quest to uncover the truth about a former manufacturer's decades of hazardous waste dumping in town. Tim has a BA in English/Professional Writing from Fitchburg State College where he worked on the college's weekly newspaper as its managing editor for three years. He later graduated from the American Press Institute in 1995. Tim lives in Brookfield with his wife, Danielle, and their two sons, Timmy Jr. and Christopher. His interests include songwriting, drumming, writing fiction, cross-country skiing, hiking, trail maintenance, and volunteering for the Boy Scouts.
