I guess they say New York cuz its a big city. Also, the most of the organizers were from New York ( I guess) and they annouced in previous ANA that it would be in New York. They found Newark to be cheaper. One of the big concern and complaints from participants is the cost. It could more than 100 dollars just to attend (fees, concert ticket etc). Then, you pay for air, hotel, food etc. Its not cheap. I guess it was much cheaper to organize in Newark. However, the cost is still high. But, it would have been higher if they had to reserve centers in New York. For me, it doesn't really matter whether they say New York or Newark .
