Matt Atchity

Matt Atchity has two decades of experience creating and managing content for online audiences, primarily in the editorial arena. Matt’s ability to create and publish content has constantly evolved over the years, encompassing everything from AOL’s “walled garden” to all-encompassing web portals like Yahoo to now publishing for mobile audiences on social platforms.

For the last ten years, Matt has served as Editor in Chief at Rotten Tomatoes, and under his leadership the brand has become an essential part of movie and TV news. In 2010, Matt joined Cenk Uygur and Ben Mankiewicz to create What the Flick?!, a no holds barred movie review show on TYT Network.

Matt's movie review roundups are frequently broadcasted on TV, web and radio around the country on outlets such as Adam Carolla's Podcast, FOXnews.com and Good Day LA On KTTV. He is frequently tapped by major media outlets such as ABC News, CNN, Fox News, MSNBC and NPR as an expert commentator on major entertainment stories.
