As reported moments ago by Bob McCarthy, the former Joe Illuzzi site (politicsny.net) will relaunch in January 2013, and will be written by Southtowns-based Republican strategist Michael Caputo and moderate Democratic teacher and blogger, Pete Herr. It will be a departure from the previous owner’s muckraking and paid character assassination and will combine a mix of reporting and commentary from across the political spectrum. Congratulations to them in their new venture.

Someone snapped it up, and a relaunch is apparently in the works for the very near future.

No word yet on who bought it, but the site now features this image:
