Good morning! What do Ann Coulter, Tucker Carlson, Rush Limbaugh, and Donald Trump have in common with the domestic terrorist who murdered 22 people at an El Paso Walmart? The words they use when they talk about immigrants. A lawsuit alleging negligence on the part of the Sheraton Atlanta Hotel related to a Legionnaires’ disease
In late July, tens of thousands of Georgians in Cobb, Fulton, and Newton Counties were suddenly made aware that they’d been exposed a toxic air-born chemical when a story that was jointly reported by Andy Miller at Georgia Health News and Brenda Goodman of WebMD was published. Ethylene oxide (EO) is a potent chemical that
Former gubernatorial candidate Michael Williams, who finished last in the 2018 GOP primary, wrote this morning that he regrets his campaign and that he was guided by “pride, ego, and bad advice.” In May, Williams pled guilty to fraud charges that stemmed from a bizarre campaign theft allegation, and was sentenced to probation. From his
Good morning! Most of Georgia’s children are back in school, so please be safe (and patient) when you’re driving your morning and afternoon commutes. Toni Morrison has died.

Good morning! Please excuse any technical difficulties – no need to adjust your screen. Yesterday at Wimbledon, a 15-year-old Georgia teen defeated Venus Williams. Atlanta is now a smoke-free city! Smell ya later, Hartsfield-Jackson smokers’ aquarium! Representative Carter and the duality of drill, baby, drill – just not in Georgia. Oregon lawmakers (I guess they’re
Sorry, folks! Yes, we are a full month into summer break (for those of us for whom summer break is a thing, as it is for me), and yes, I still have not adjusted to the change in routine. Many schools across the south no longer want to be named for Robert E. Lee, and
Good morning! Last week, TheDeepDark asked our readers to suggest news sources that we might overlook in our Morning Reads. Thank you for the suggestions! I try to keep up with different dailies from across Georgia, but it’s easy to miss some of the great resources we have. One intrepid reader noted that too many
