NJTV’s Michael Aron pays tribute to the founder of Politifax, and Jersey political journalism legend, Nick Acocella:

“In 1997, a political tip sheet started appearing. It was called “PolitifaxNJ,” and it was witty, informative and trenchant. “Who’s writing this?” I wondered. The masthead said, “Editor and Publisher — Nick Acocella.” Didn’t know him. So I called and booked an interview with him for what was then called NJN News.”
