The Atlanta Journal-Constitution has partnered with public radio station 90.1 WABE to move its Politically Georgia program to a daily show.
The current podcast features reporters Greg Bluestein, Patricia Murphy, and Washington correspondent Tia Mitchell. The program has hired veteran host Bill Nigut to join the program as it expands to five days a week.
“Georgia is a crucial state that is entering a crucial election season. Our citizens need a forum for sanity, reason and to break down the events of the day,” Nigut said. “I’m honored to join the ranks of the AJC reporters and editors I’ve admired over the course of my career at a time when the paper is doubling down on its coverage across the South – and airing the show on WABE 90.1 will broaden our reach even more.”
Nigut has hosted Political Reward for Georiga Public Broadcasting for the past nine years.
The show will air live at 10:00 AM on 90.1 WABE, and continue to live in its current podcast form.
“This partnership is a great opportunity for WABE and the AJC to collaborate on a high-quality, informative radio show that will serve the needs of the Greater Atlanta area,” WABE President Jennifer Dorian said.
