He landed his first broadcast job in 1962 (as a "Top 40 DJ") and worked as a "disc jockey," journalist, TV news anchor, news director and director of operations in radio and television from New England to Puerto Rico before settling in Macon after serving in the U.S. Air Force.

He joined the Monitor staff in 2003 after spending over twenty years in a variety of television positions in Atlanta. Denny grew up around the farm community. His father was a John Deere® dealer for most of his life and owned a family farm with his brother and father. After spending so many years in the broadcast industry, Denny is glad to get back to his roots and be around people who he calls “the salt of the earth.” Michael Edmondson came from the production side of the local FOX network affiliate, WGXA-TV in January of 1997.

He started his news career shooting 16mm news film, graduated to videotape and now uses digital format. Since 1985, he has logged thousands of miles criss-crossing the state, spending time with farmers to produce stories for the show. He joined the Monitor staff in 1985.

Then, Mark worked for 6 years as a freelance photojournalist on numerous projects in and around the state, most recently with Georgia Public Television.

Damon Jones is the newest member of the staff (2011). Damon was sports director for a local Fox affiliate when he joined the Monitor staff. He has quickly acclimated to the way we do things in a half-hour program and has been a quick study when it comes to covering agriculture in rural Georgia. |
