About GLI
The roots of Greater Long Island can be traced back to 2015 when Michael White, a seasoned newspaperman, launched greaterpatchogue.com. This platform initially focused on downtown Patchogue, its surrounding hamlets, and Bellport Village.
As other Long Island communities recognized the value of Greater Patchogue’s style of news coverage, the site evolved into greaterlongisland.com, expanding its reach to cover news island-wide. This expansion, particularly into Nassau County last year, contributed to the platform’s growing popularity.
Greater Long Island’s success is driven by a dedicated team of Long Island-bred reporters and photographers, many of whom have extensive experience in some of the world’s largest newsrooms, including the New York Post, Daily News, and ESPN.
This year, Greater LI earned its first Emmy nomination for its mini-sports documentary called “Survivor: The Definitive Story of Dunia Sibomona.”
