Appen Media

Appen Media Community news for North Atlanta since 1983. Podcasts for all since 2018. In 2018 Appen launched the Appen Podcast Network.

Thirty years ago, Ray and Christina Appen bought a bi-monthly newspaper in Alpharetta called The R***e, left their positions at The Miami Herald and moved to run the newspaper. In the following years, they renamed the paper The R***e & News and increased the publishing frequency to weekly. Following the success of The R***e & News, the Appens started publishing three more weekly papers, a monthy w

omen’s magazine and a quarterly relocation guide. They even expanded outside of publishing to social media management, design and graphics services, digital newsletter management and website services. However, the core business remains community news publishing.
