Hey everyone! I recently discovered veteran journalist Fred Kerber, who spent nearly five decades covering the Nets, Knicks, Islanders, police beats, and baseball for the New York Post (28?years) and New York Daily News (16?years) before retiring. Known now as the self?described “retired curmudgeon,” Fred still shares insights from his career—and occasional humor about “finally trying carpentry” and asking, “So what’s a router do?”.
If you've followed his coverage, what moments or stories from his reporting stand out to you? How has his storytelling shaped your view of New York sports culture? And now that he’s stepped away from the daily grind, is there value in veteran reporters like Fred continuing a dialogue through social media? Let’s discuss the impact of long?time journalists, his legacy, and why voices like his still matter today.
