Magic Mile Media, Inc., parent company of Neuse News, has assumed ownership of NCPoliticalNews.com effective December 1, 2020.

Frank Williams, a public relations professional who has been involved in North Carolina’s political process for over 25 years, founded N.C. Political News in early 2013. The site took a hiatus in 2018 and 2019 before Williams re-launched it in mid-2020

“I’m continually surprised by the positive feedback I receive from people who subscribe to the N.C. Political News e-newsletter,” said Williams. “The site has tremendous potential to have a positive impact on the political climate in North Carolina but is too far removed from my primary business for me to devote the time required to maximize that potential. I’m excited to hand it off to the team at Magic Mile Media and look forward to seeing where they take it.”

“I'd like to thank Frank for entrusting our Magic Mile Media and Neuse News teams to help advance NCPoliticalNews.com,” said BJ Murphy, former mayor of Kinston, founder of Magic Mile Media, and publisher of NeuseNews.com. “North Carolina is home to a rich history, unparalleled traditions, and a bright future. We look forward to telling more of her story so the public can make better-educated decisions.”
