History
editThe paper is the result of the financial collapse of Window Media in November 2009. With the closure of Window Media, Atlanta lost its primary LGBT newspaper, Southern Voice.[2] The founder and editor of that paper got together to form a new company and paper, The Georgia Voice.[1][3] Six of the original seven staff members were former employees of Southern Voice before its closure under parent company Window Media.[citation needed]
In December 2024, the paper was acquired by Rough Draft Atlanta.[4]
