Maybe the Sandy's aftermath on LI hasnt been covered very well, but during the actual storm I saw tons of TV coverage in Long Beach, Freeport, Lindy, and Bay Shore.
Same. Although I did not have power, on Halloween I saw lots of coverage for all of Suffolk. Even saw Oakdale.
We need to bumbard one official that has the smarts and the mouth ....who? Someone has to know someone that can get the media here and talk to the people . Not local coverage ..we need the rest of the country to know . Our so called famous people seems to have forgoten us except Billy Joel. Lindenhusrt is a mess Who was that famous singer that grew up there ? I agree with Clark but for now we need the mouth.
Lindenhurst IS a mess. And so is Fire Island and every town from Babylon to Queens, south of Merrick Rd. A big chunk of LI was severely damaged or destroyed by Sandy....and yet no one outside of LI knows this.
Location: An Island off the coast of North America

They'll discover Long Island just as soon as they are done reporting on NJ and Manhattan. Of course the public will have moved on to who Taylor Swift is dating by then as the big news story.
DIY, even if people outside the area knew I don't think it would move them much. Long Island is really only known by Islanders and people from NYC & California who vacation there. I'm not sure how Long Island gets heard from through the filter of NYC media.
That is unequivocally true. The national news media and our local news here in NW Michigan have never shown ANYTHING about Long Island. Just Jersey and Manhattan(
