The Lead: The Atlanta Business Chronicle’s Erin Schilling on the Joy of Editing

It’s only been a couple of years since Erin Schilling graduated from the University of Georgia, but she’s already a digital editor at the Atlanta Business Chronicle. In this episode, we chat about the skills that got her there, what she likes about business reporting and one of her favorite stories — that started when she was scooped.

“There’s a level of give and take there when you’re editing, that you’re not trying to rewrite someone’s work, you’re just trying to help them make it shine more.”

Guest: Erin Schilling, digital editor at the Atlanta Business Chronicle.

Jacqueline GaNun is a senior majoring in journalism at the Grady College of Journalism and Mass Communication at the University of Georgia. She is also majoring in international affairs in the School of Public and International Affairs and minoring in French.
