Greg Bluestein is the chief political reporter for The Atlanta Journal-Constitution, where he co-hosts the Politically Georgia podcast and curates the morning newsletter of the same name. An analyst for MS NOW, he is also a frequent guest on local and national television, radio and podcasts. He is the author of Flipped, an award-winning book on Georgia's epic 2020 election, and a recipient of the Toner Prize for excellence in local political reporting. The Society of Professional Journalists named him the South's top political journalist in both 2024 and 2025 — though the title he might be proudest of came from Axios, which called him the "most dedicated" Bulldog fan at the 2023 national championship game. A proud University of Georgia graduate with degrees in journalism and political science, Bluestein is a lifelong Georgian who serves on several metro Atlanta civic, educational and religious boards. He lives in Dunwoody with his wife and two daughters.
