Davisville, Sept. 8, 2025: We talk with Benjy Egel, food editor for Abridged, a major new source of regional news

Mon, 09/08/2025 - 5:30pm | Bill Buchanan

Greater Sacramento will gain a promising new source of news and information when Abridged, part of Sacramento public TV station KVIE, officially debuts on Sept. 16. Benjy Egel (pictured), who grew up in Davis and formerly wrote about food for the Sacramento Bee, is Abridged’s senior food editor, and he describes the new journalism project today on Davisville.

The venture employs several journalists who, like Egel, have already worked in this region. We learn how Abridged will work and what it will write about (generally no crime, or politics that aren’t local). Its main product will be a written newsletter, plus video, free to all. The name plays off the idea of building bridges through information, Tower bridge, and writing succinctly. He says Abridged already has enough money for the first three years despite the Trump administration's cuts to public media.

Because Benjy knows Davis, we also took this opportunity near the end of the show to get his thoughts on the city's places to eat.
