10,000,000.

• First off, thanks to ALL of you for making this most incredible milestone possible. In just over 5 years (we started this site back in May of 1997), News Askew has now celebrated over 10 million visits. That’s quite a number. We’ve been keeping close track of the count since day one, and we’re happy to say that it’s always been on the upswing for us, and, as always, YOU make this site possible. So we again must thank you all for your continued support, for spreading the word, and for being the best bunch of fans out there. We never dreamed we’d get this far.

As most of you know, we had a prize at stake for this milestone as well – A featured walk-on role in Kevin Smith’s upcoming “Jersey Girl”. We’re happy to report that we have a confirmed winner to the contest, by the name of Seth Bedwell. We’re waiting to confirm his acceptance of the prize, but if he takes it, the walk-on is his.

The counter did run up pretty fast at the end there, and it was rolled back for any massive cheating throughout the contest. At the end, however, the coutner just went up THAT fast due to the massive amount of folks attempting to hit the magic number.

But don’t fret — If you didn’t win, check the story just below this one for details on how you can still get your mug in the movie.

Again, thanks to ALL of you for playing, and thanks for making News Askew more popular than ever. We’re hoping to be here for many millions more, and hope you’ll stick around (even though the free prizes have gone away for a while). More news later!
