My name is Sergio Hernandez.


I am a freelance reporter in New York City.


Sometimes I'm also a web designer and amateur photographer, but usually I just write about things like media, politics, film, music, TV, theater, technology, crime, law, food, travel, and pop culture. And anything else that might occur to me. (Or pays.)


If you'd like to contact me, please leave a comment.

I am currently a contributing reporter for Gawker.com From July 2009 to December 2009, I was an intern in Gawker’s video department, which involved a lot of TV-watching, video editing, blogging, and — once — bartending. From January 2010 to May 2010, I then served as an editorial/reporting intern. Below is some of my work that has appeared on Gawker and its armada of blog titles.

More highlights of my work as a video intern and for Gawker.TV are available here, and a complete listing of my work across all Gawker Media titles can be found here.
