From the editor/owner….
This is a fascinating and heady time for media, nationally, and right here in Atlanta.
As a lifelong Atlanta native, I have been monitoring the local media scene here for years. From the analog, pre-internet years to the digital, social media influencer era we see today.
As the business continues to evolve, I hope to provide insight, analysis, context, and history to our local media’s past, present, and future.
Thanks for visiting, and I hope you enjoy From The 404.
