Maybe I am not understanding something here. Who is the boss of the entire area? New York and New Jersey? Does Tony answer to anyone? What about Johnny Sack? Thank you in advance.

Isnt the "soprano" family actually the Demeo family. If I recall they talk about a Eclio(spelling?) DeMeo who is doing a life sentence in prison. He appointed Jackie Aprile Sr. to be acting boss while in prison.
I buy you out. You don't buy me out.

My understanding is that New York and New Jersey are two different factions. NJ consists of the DeMeo/Soprano Family, and NY comprises the Five Families, one of which is led by Carmine Lupertazzi (the Family of which Johnny Sac is Underboss). Neither answers to the other, but they have a mutual agreement with regard to certain business matters (eg, NY gets a share of the Sopranos' income from the sanitation business).
There is no Boss ruling the two areas.
Junior, now that he is over his trial, is still technically Boss of the Soprano Family, but I think even he knows now that he isn't getting any younger, and it may be time to give total command to Tony (after all, Tony ran the whole Family while Junior was going through his trial).
We won't actually know who is the Boss for sure until season five hits our screens. Is Junior back to his commanding post? Is Tony busting heads with regard to retaining his position? WHo knows?

well after jakie died everyone pretty much considered tony boss. weather junior realized it or not. hence having hesh, and everyone else going to tony instead of junior for buisness deals.

Originally posted by Boss_of_bosses: Tony has been the official Boss of the Jersey Mob since either the beginning of season 2 or ending of season 1 I wouldn't say it was official, BoB. Tony was considered the Boss, but then again he always had been, even when Junior wasn't under House Arrest. Junior was still official Boss, but his being under House Arrest took him out of the action. Tony still went to him for advice on some matters. Mick
