Our Story

GreaterBabylon seeks to be the premier community information resource for all of Babylon Town.

The site has a daily newspaper feel, with a focus on quality writing. But the emphasis here is on features and community news — as opposed to crime and politics.

Greater Long Island Media Group’s first site, GreaterPatchogue.com, launched on July 1, 2015, then expanded in 2016 and 2017 with three additional sites out of the Bay Shore, Babylon and Port Jefferson areas, including GreaterBabylon.

Company founder Michael White was previously a staff reporter at the New York Post and the Daily News. He later edited two weekly newspapers on the East End of Long Island.
