When Atlanta Journal-Constitution managing editor Bert Roughton got hooked on Serial, he brought the idea back to the newspaper. AJC’s new weekly podcast Breakdown follows a case involving the murder of an elderly woman in a western Georgia town and the man who was convicted of the murder and maintains his innocence. Bill Rankin, the senior legal affairs reporter who is working on the podcast, says: “I think a well-written story in a newspaper is a wonderful thing and can change the course of history. But I also always thought really good audio is even better than good TV because you can do just about anything while you’re listening. … It can really bring you into the moment of what you’re listening to.”
