Atlanta Business Chronicle starts TV show

The Atlanta Business Chronicle is starting a weekly, 30-minute television show next month that will air on Sundays.

A story in the latest edition of the paper states, “‘Part of our mission is to make viewers aware of the vibrancy of the business community in Atlanta,’ said John Deushane, president and general manager of the Networks of 11Alive. ‘[“Atlanta Business Chronicle’s BIZ”] will shine a light on the positive things that are happening within the business community of which many Atlantans are not aware.’

“Atlanta Business Chronicle and 11Alive have had a long-term content sharing relationship. Deushane said the television program is a natural progression.

“The 30-minute program is the only locally produced television show devoted solely to the business community in Atlanta. It will feature business news stories, interviews and a behind-the-scenes look at the people and industries that power the metro area’s economy.

Crystal Edmonson, Atlanta Business Chronicle’s broadcast editor, will host the show. Veteran Atlanta broadcaster Patrick Crosby will report on local business trends in a segment called By the Numbers. Chronicle Publisher Ed Baker will conduct one-on-one interviews with CEOs and other Atlanta decision-makers in a segment called CEO to CEO.”
