AP and Reuters cover the nation and the statehouse. NickO covers every council, commission and board in your market, and moves it to your desk as sourced, publish-ready wire copy, day and night.
Atlanta (NickO Bureau) — Council consideration is listed for Oct. 19. The proposal would allow adjustments for any period and amount, but would not guarantee debt forgiveness.

Read the published storyYou pick the places: the core city, the suburbs, the county, the school board. The wire reads what each one publishes and files what’s news, mostly the things readers can still act on before the vote.
Your reporters keep the big stories. The wire fills in everything they can’t get to.
Last week in metro Atlanta, our first market: 214 stories, Oct. 9–16, 2026.
Every story arrives the way wire copy should: a dateline, a tight lead and the facts in order. Each line points to the page of the public record it came from, and a separate reviewer has checked it before it moves.
A recommendation is never written up as a vote. The copy says what actually happened.
Alpharetta, Ga. (NickO Bureau) — The revised draft would stop county payments at the cap, but overpayment refunds would come only from uncommitted district funds. Council considers it Oct. 19.

Read the published storyHeadlines, links and release times come from NickO Report stories. Follow the work between releases in quick bursts. Drag to look around, then click a room or use the timeline.
Publish stories as they arrive under a “NickO Bureau” credit, the same way you run AP. Overnight and weekend filings are ready when your morning editor logs on.
Rewrite, localize or fold it into your own coverage. The citations travel with the copy, so your editors can check every line against the record.
Use the wire as a tip sheet. Each story comes with the case file behind it, so your reporters start from the documents instead of the agenda.
The wire will sit in on livestreamed and Zoom meetings and move the vote while the meeting is still going.
When the documents leave something open, it will ask the city and report the answer.
Each new city starts with its public records. Everything after that works the same way.
