ETF Entertainment Revives The Market Street Press Legacy Through Roku TV Magazine Honoring Lisa Marie Palmeno With a Dedicated Magazine Page, Community Features, and Youth Collaboration

COVER OF AUGUST ROKU TV MAGAZINE

ROCKFORD, IL — ETF ENTERTAINMENT LLC proudly announces the revival of The Market Street Press legacy in loving memory of the late Lisa Marie Palmeno—an influential journalist, artist, and voice for the Rockford community. Though the original paper is no longer in print, its mission lives on through the newly launched ETF ENTERTAINMENT Roku TV Magazine—a multimedia publication blending print, digital, and televised storytelling.


Lisa Marie Palmeno created a space where creativity, truth, and community thrived,” said Shakia Yancey, President of ETF ENTERTAINMENT. “While the name and format have evolved, we are deeply committed to continuing the work she began.”



The Legacy Continues: A Special Page in Every Issue



Each month, a dedicated “Market Street Press Legacy Page” will appear in the ETF ENTERTAINMENT Roku TV Magazine, curated in memory and collaboration with Lisa’s vision. This space will feature artistic expression, local storytelling, and community contributions that reflect the original heart of The Market Street Press.



Features Keeping Lisa’s Spirit Alive:



  • Veterans Weekly Spotlight


    Sharing the story of one veteran each week—highlighting their journey and service. Families are invited to submit stories for recognition across magazine, web, and TV platforms.

  • 🎉 Birthday Shoutouts


    Celebrate your loved ones in print and on air! Send a photo, birth date, and fun bio to be featured. (Submit entries 30 days in advance.)
