Was Cergol from News 12 Long Island? They seem to be the farm team for the bureau reporters. |

cergol does a fine job but his work is usually confined to the 5pm ghetto where nobody is watching anymore
it's hard in this big of a market because people in NJ don't care about LI and vice versa, that's why the news12 stations have proliferated
a couple quota LI/NJ stories in the early shows..
most of it pushed aside for late-breaking urban crime in the late show..
meanwhile these broadcasts are getting pumped up with national vo's
no issues are getting explored in depth
HUT's are dropping...
at least the 11pm shows are usually watchable because of the time constraint
2's shows are pretty tight now but offer little incentive to switch... and will roz & rosenfield have chemistry?
