Duffie Dixon Quick-thinking,​ Emmy ​award​ ​winning ​​media​ ​specialist​ ​with​ ​27​ ​years​ ​of​ ​hands-on​ ​experience in television news, media training and storytelling. Owner of Duffie Dixon Media.

As a born communicator and storyteller I am taking my talent and skills from 27 years in the broadcast television business and applying it to the corporate world. I have a passion for storytelling, media training, crisis communications and empowering individuals and companies to hone and share their message across a variety of platforms. I was a general assignment reporter WXIA-TV 11 Alive for 14 years covering everything from hurricanes and murder trials to heartwarming human interest stories. I spent three years at WBTV in Charlotte, North Carolina as the crime reporter. Before that, I had the privilege to develop, executive produce and anchor the first ever morning show for KPVI-TV in Pocatello, Idaho. While I hail from Southern California, I proudly now call Suwanee, Georgia my home and wouldn't dream of moving back to the west! You just can't beat the quality of life, various bodies of water, and vacation destinations up and down the east coast and Caribbean. I graduated from Pepperdine University with a Bachelor of Arts degree in broadcast journalism. Some of my favorite memories of doing this job for more than 17 years include riding out the eye of Hurricane Ivan in Mobile, AL, going undercover with federal drug agents, covering one of the first U.S trials with ties to terrorism and carrying the Olympic torch for the 1996 games. And who could forget interviewing Matthew McConaughey!! (See photo below) Among the highlights in my personal life are my wonderful husband, my hero-mom, my friends (both here and back home) and my dog, Dash .

When a dog leaped from a helicopter to accompany the U.S. SEAL team on the raid of Osama bin Laden’s complex in 2011, Emory's Dr. Gregory Berns was inspired.

“I thought, If dogs can jump out of helicopters, we can train them to go into an MRI.”

Four lawmakers are asking the Governor to investigate the Henry County School Board, arguing its "dysfunctionality, raical polarization and the intentional violation of board policies" are putting students in jeopardy.

Missing man found in hospital as ‘John Doe' in ICU

How exactly did this happen? We were originally told he had walked out of the hospital and was missing. His family was frantic.

The family said that they received a phone call Wednesday from the hospital Chaplin who saw the story on 11Alive. He told the family that he had been with Michael Allen the entire time that he was in the hospital as “John Doe”—which was since his car crash last Thursday.

Obviously, this has sparked many comments on our FB page. One of the most bizarre things I have ever seen.

The mom charged with slaughtering four of her children and her husband made her first appearance this morning. She played to the camera waving, throwing her hands up and, at one point, getting down on her knees. Here is that story: http://on.11alive.com/2txNMTL

We need your help identifying the suspects in this video!

On July 6, 2017, at approximately 5 p.m., three suspects committed a burglary at a home on Fay Drive in Rex, Georgia. They managed to cover the basics in the "Burglar's Handbook 📕" by knocking several times and ringing the doorbell before they forced a side door of the home open to make entry. Apparently there isn't a section in the handbook that provides guidance on how to deal with surveillance cameras. Once the trio discovered that their graceful entry had been captured by a camera, they opted for a more dramatic exit...*insert slow clap here👏* Too late! 🌾👀🌾Peek-a-boo we seen you.

If you know who they are, send us a message or call Crime Stoppers Atlanta at 404-577-8477.
