Here’s what one reviewer says about Polaris: “The food and the staff made this meal a wonderful experience. Add on the atmosphere and views as Polaris spins, and I have to recommend everyone try it at least once. Weekdays are typically easier to be seated and allow the staff to provide even better personal service.”

One of Atlanta’s most recognizable faces is joining one of its most trusted media organizations. Legendary journalist Monica Pearson will join the AJC as the host of a new weekly video program and podcast, the Atlanta-Journal Constitution announced.
As an AJC contributor, Pearson will host The Monica Pearson Show. She will also write a regular lifestyle newsletter and column for both AJC.com and the newspaper, in addition to hosting AJC Live events, according to a news release.
The Monica Pearson Show To Premiere On The AJC
Pearson has been an icon in local broadcasting for nearly four decades, spending much of that time informing and entertaining the community on WSB Television. Currently, she hosts Monica Pearson One on One on PeachtreeTV. She will bring her talent and experience to the AJC during a time of investment and innovation.
“This is a full circle moment for me since I started my paid journalism career in 1969 as a reporter for The Louisville Times newspaper in my hometown of Louisville, KY. This is another opportunity for me to do what I love doing, interviewing people. After an interview, my slogan simply is, ‘You know the name and now you will know the person.'”
Pearson’s arrival comes as the AJC is charting a course to transform the storied 155-year-old newspaper into a modern media company. In addition to bolstering the world-class journalism the AJC is known for, the organization is also expanding its content offerings and investing in audio, video, newsletters, and live events. Pearson’s show will live alongside the AJC’s expanded podcast slate, which includes Politically Georgia and Breakdown, and it will mark the first weekly video program in the AJC’s history.
“We’ve established a mission to be the most essential and engaging source of news for the people of Atlanta, Georgia, and the South,” said AJC President and Publisher Andrew Morse, who joined the organization this year. “That effort begins here in our community. And nobody is more Atlanta than Monica. We are thrilled for her to bring her talent to the AJC.”
Pearson has won 33 regional and local Emmy awards for her work, including being inducted into the Atlanta Press Club, National Association of Black Journalists, University of Kentucky Journalism, Georgia Association of Broadcasters, and the Georgia Music Hall of Fame. In addition to her broadcast career, she hosts a monthly radio segment, titled “A Monica Moment.”
Pearson’s arrival is just the latest prominent editorial hire for the AJC. Leroy Chapman Jr. was named editor-in-chief in March, becoming the first Black editor in the paper’s history. Earlier this month, Chapman announced the hiring of Sharif Durhams from the Washington Post to be the AJC’s Managing Editor for news.

“This is a world-class first-class venue with an excellent light show and definitely an upscale feel I love the fact that you can run into any and everybody from celebrities athletes to your neighbor.”“Visiting from out of town. Had a pretty good time. Found them on eventbrite cause we were looking for something to get into. Parking closest to the club on the street was $20 & $40 for valet. We just parked a little further up the street and paid nothing. The lounge itself was posh, nice design, the DJ was jamming. The audience is so different now going out. People don’t really dance. They just stand around looking at each other and their phones. Drinks were a bit pricey. The seating is a little interesting. You can basically sit anywhere up until a waitresses or someone asks you to move because someone bought the table/sections.”Club Revel in Atlanta: What It’s Like Inside
