Mild-Mannered Reporter Jumps Newsrooms

Andy Bromage, a 29 year-old New Haven Register reporter known for his smart, fair, in-depth coverage of City Hall and public housing, is moving to the weekly New Haven Advocate on Sept. 11 (!) to direct the paper’s news coverage. (Bromage doesn’t normally wear a yarmulke. He donned one for this photo to impersonate another reporter in town who looks like him; the two are often mistaken for each other.) Bromage vowed “to beat the pants off the New Haven Independent and the New Haven Register on every major story affecting New Haven readers.” Meanwhile, the Advocate’s management has also promoted Tom Gogola, to the top editor post at the company’s Bridgeport-based sister edition, the Fairfield County Weekly.

You TURNCOAT!
Just kidding…

A disgruntled reporter’s spouse.

PS Be wary of guests at your wedding wearing Groucho Marx glasses and moustache…the sordid details of reporter’s weddings have a history of being printed in the Advocate before…

Hey, that’s just great news. Bromage is awesome, and the Advocate will give him more freedom in terms of what he writes.

Best of luck Andy!

I check by-lines in the Register, and Andy Bromage is one of their best.  He’s interviewed me two or three times. I have doubted the Advocate in recent years and bringing in Andy gives me hope.  But Andy, c’mon, NHI is 24/7 (almost) and NHA is weekly!  I hear Isadora is moving to the news section.

Way to go little brother!  I’m looking forward to a cover photo on the Advocate, when you report on your niece’s second birthday party!

Andy Bromage, the witty super scoopster will bring a whole new light to The Advocate. And let us not forget the, the man plays a mean banjo. Andy, MY MAN, good luck!
