It was an "addition" when we added it six months ago to our line-up of posts.

Perhaps because the blog runs as a continuous roll, instead of a self-contained, individual 'edition', it isn't a pun at all. The posts that appear early in the day are in 'addition' to the previous evening's posts.

I've wondered about this myself, and will continue to do so...

Can someone explain to me how it is a pun? I like puns. A lot. And I have never understood this one.

@maryba- I agree. Maybe if there weren't so many spelling and grammar errors in every Gothamist post, I could accept the pun. Calling it "Early Addition" just looks like another example of Gothamist not being able to spell properly.
