Mid Bay News is a community newsroom with a mission to bring local news free to everyone, so that we can make the best decisions for our shared future.
Christopher Saul started his first digital media news outlet as a fourth-grader with a couple of his friends in 2002.
In 2015, Saul graduated with a Bachelor’s Degree in Journalism – along with minors in History and Advertising. He took his first job in Journalism at a TV Station in Odessa, Texas before moving to Fort Walton Beach in 2016 to work for a local TV Station.
More than a couple of things have changed since Lynch Bunch News started (named after the 4th grade teacher), but making sure people have easy access to information that affects their lives is still a passion for Christopher – and now the rest of the Saul Family.
After the closure of the Bay Beacon newspaper, the Sauls realized that there needed to be a local Newspaper for Niceville Fl. It needed to include Eglin AFB news, Niceville news and Valparaiso news.
That’s when they made the decision to build a local news outlet – Mid Bay News was born!
The Sauls live in Niceville and want to ensure that it continues on its positive trajectory, so that it can become a dynamic community with a wealth of opportunities for people of all interests.
