Micah Johnston focuses on local news, with a heavy emphasis on crime and breaking or evolving stories. Pitches should provide unique angles to ongoing investigations or recent events in Macon, Georgia, particularly those related to law enforcement activities and criminal justice developments.
Given the high proportion of breaking news coverage, pitches should be timely and relevant to current events in Macon. For example, providing insights into local crime trends or impactful community initiatives could attract Micah's attention.
While entertainment news is also covered, it forms a smaller portion of the articles compared to crime-related topics. If pitching entertainment-related stories, they should have significant impact within the community or tie into broader societal issues for a stronger chance of gaining interest from Micah.
