The Atlantic Wire Relaunches
The Atlantic has relaunched The Atlantic Wire today, and it’s got FishbowlNY’s stamp of approval. It’s a clean, bold look, along with categories – Politics, Business, Entertainment, Technology, National, Global – that are constantly updated throughout the day.
Always a place to catch the latest news, the new tagline – “What Matters Now” – stresses that, and the site is more social than before. A reader forum called “Open Wire” lets people discuss the big stories of the day.
Bob Cohn, Editorial Director for The Atlantic Digital team, says the redesign should keep people coming back. “With this months-in-the-works relaunch, we’ll provide an analytical and energetic take on the day’s most important stories. If you’ve been away from your desk for a couple of hours, The Atlantic Wire will tell you everything you need to know about what matters now.”
The site’s new Editor, Gabriel Snyder, must be excited about the spread. Nothing like getting a new, exciting job, and a newly furnished home to go with it. FishbowlNY suggests putting up a Bo Jackson poster in the basement.
