Metro Jackson's Premier Online City Guide Wraps First Annual Viewers' Choice Contest

JACKSON, Mississippi-May 23, 2008

WAPT announces the winners of the Best of the A-List, powered by CityVoter. The first annual competition invited thousands of locals to vote for their favorite businesses on the A-List at www.wapt.com/alist. This online guide is Metro Jackson's premier destination for local information, featuring descriptions, photos, maps, and customer comments on the top local businesses. The A-List provides local businesses with a platform to easily build, manage, and promote their own web content and gives consumers the power to create their own city guide by choosing the best businesses and post comments, photos, and more.

Since launching at the beginning of 2007, the A-List has grown to feature information, photos, and reviews on more than 500 local businesses. The eight-week-long contest drew thousands of votes for more than 80 categories such as Burger, Day Spa, Wedding Photographer, Bakery and Sports Bar. Winners in selected categories will be announced daily starting May 19 on www.wapt.com/alist, with the complete list of 2008 winners available online on May 23, 2008. Winners receive a 2008 A-List Winner's Certificate to display at their place of business.

"We are thrilled offer the premier online guide to the best businesses in our city," said WAPT General Manager Stuart Kellogg. "The A-List is a powerful extension of WAPT's commitment to provide Jackson with innovative news and information resources."

"The WAPT A-List is a first in Jackson - delivering a valuable online tool for local businesses and consumers; our advertisers are naturally thrilled to be part of it," comments Jeff Wolfe, WAPT General Sales Manager.

"We are delighted to see so many local businesses receive the recognition they deserve on the WAPT A-List," commented Josh Walker, CityVoter CEO.
