Andy Bromage, a 29 year-old New Haven Register reporter known for his smart, fair, in-depth coverage of City Hall and public housing, is moving to the weekly New Haven Advocate on Sept. 11 (!) to direct the paper’s news coverage. (Bromage doesn’t normally wear a yarmulke. He donned one for this photo to impersonate another reporter in town who looks like him; the two are often mistaken for each other.)
