The Atlanta Journal-Constitution to be fully digital edition

As on January 01, The Atlanta Journal-Constitution (AJC) will be fully digital edition. This big turning point of the daily and the seismic announcement was made by its Editor & Publisher, Andrew Morse. By the coming New Year day of 2026, AJC would stop printing a physical newspaper, something it has done since shortly after the Civil War. “The fact is, many more people engage with our digital platforms and products today than with our print edition, and that shift is only accelerating,” Andrew wrote in a letter published in the AJC.

“I don’t need to tell you how quickly the media landscape is evolving. For you, and for us, holding onto the paper can bring a sense of comfort in a world of unrelenting change. But we cannot allow that to hold us back,” informed Andrew. The AJC, which currently prints seven days a week, will still publish a daily ePaper online, maintaining the print layout. Still, the drastic cut back from a daily print paper to none at all goes a step further than most other publications that have chosen a more phased approach.
