The NJ Star-Ledger has a video online about New Jersey accents:

http://www.nj.com/ledgerlive/index.ssf/2010/08/new_jersey_accents_beyond_caw-.html

Other than referring to William Labov as Daniel Labov and Dale F. Coye as
Daniel Coye, not bad. (Coye's AmSp article on NJ dialect boundaries is
discussed.)
