Back when I started blogging around 2003, Kim was on the beat for the Ledger. Of all the reporters around the team, she was by far the nicest and most supportive. She also - along with Garafolo, who joined a bit later - had a sense of how the Internet would transform coverage of the sport.
Kim stuck to traditional journalistic ethics on stuff like anonymous quotes and uncorroborated sources. I respected her approach, and admired her work overall, though I understand her detractors’ point of view as well.
She had a prominent role. Glad she’s on the Giants beat.
I thought she left voluntarily but it doesn’t appear she had anything lined up, which surprised me. She’s been making appearances on WFAN and SNY over the past few months.

Didn't she have a stroke? Probably took time off to rehab. I remember her being interviewed some time after that on WFAN and was told to "Take it easy" for a while.

“Rome wasn’t built in a day, darling.” What a condescending, arrogant prick and colossal failure of a GM
...and from that day forward, KJ was hot on the trail of every story that would bury DG (with good cause of course).
I hope she is healthy and looking forward to a long career covering our team!
Aortic dissection is fucking terrifying. My brother died of that — he basically dropped dead in the street. Basically stopped his heart in just a few seconds. Douglas Adams, the "Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy" author, had one at the gym and was dead before he hit the floor. It's amazing that anyone ever survives it. Kim Jones is incredibly lucky and she knows it.
Was a little shocked when she left NFL Network and didn't jump right to something else, I was actually a little worried it was health related, but doesn't seem to be the case.
Glad to see her back on the beat.
Our beat reporters have been simply non-existent this year
Truly bizarre. Being fans of an 8 time NFL Champion in the biggest market in the U.S., we deserve a beat reporter who actually wants to keep the fan base connected. Psyched to see her back.
She has always seemed genuine and appreciative of whatever role she has been in. I'll miss Bob Glauber at Newsday, but Kim joining Tom Rock at the paper is a really good thing. Nice move

Yeah basically being at Washington's practice facility at the time with the machinery and skilled personnel there saved her life.

I still miss your blogs, blogger!
Me too -- hey Blogs - you ever gonna get back into reporting on the Giants?

I agree, Kim is great.
As the Penn State scandal broke, there was nobody even close to her reporting on WFAN for Francessa's show daily.
...and from that day forward, KJ was hot on the trail of every story that would bury DG (with good cause of course).
I hope she is healthy and looking forward to a long career covering our team!

Apparently it was an aortic dissection?
