In August, Pressley took over for Jocelyn Dorsey as community affairs director for Cox Media Atlanta, which also includes this newspaper (The Atlanta Journal-Constitution) and WSB-TV.
"I love what I am doing now, and I loved what I did before," Pressley told The Atlanta Journal-Constitution about the honor. "Each day is different, and I continue to learn something new every day."
“Atlanta is the city too busy to hate,” she continued. “To have a job where the goal is putting that compassion into action is a dream come true.”
Pressley is also a former president of both the National Association of Black Journalists (2001-03) and Atlanta Association of Black Journalists (1991-95) and was the chapter’s Pioneer Black Journalist in 2012.
She was inducted into the Georgia Radio Hall of Fame in 2016.

The other inductees in 2018 include Zack Fowler (Vidalia Communications), Dodie Cantrell (UGA Grady College) and John Weatherford (Broadcast Consultant).
