Great to see your positive pivot Nabilah. We me at the John Lewis Jimmy Carter dinner. It is tragic that we don't have local news in most of Georgia. The mergers and roll up of small broadcast stations and the potential for squashing of free press as we have seen with CBS affiliates is particularly alarming.
I had realized local news was missing from my life, as due to.fiscal challenges I have gone without usual sources for this, for sometime; but I had not realized it might have disappeared for many others. Thus your revelation about disappearing local news in Georgia was very eye opening. I live in a small city in Nebraska where local news is the purview of right wing media: I do feel community here is moribund as a result. Though it appears Facebook functions as an alternative. (I don’t do FB). I think your project is important. I look forward to its evolution.

Thanks Karen and nice to meet you again. I agree it’s very tragic. Now more than ever we need accountability in media. I intend to help with that.

Progressives need their own color to distinguish themselves from the “vote blue no matter who”’s gullible crowd. Purple maybe?
Stopped subscribing to AJC many years ago and you are right, unbiased Georgia news is hard to come by.
