Bungalower Editor-In-Chief Brendan Bunting O'Connor has made Orlando Magazine's 50 Most Powerful Ones to Watch list for his 'ubiquitous' multi-platform media presence
For roughly eight years now, the former Saultite has been editor-in-chief of Bungalower, a hyperlocal local news website which covers the downtown Orlando area and surrounding ‘bungalow neighborhoods.’ But more recently, Bunting O’Connor has received the nod as one of this year’s 50 Most Powerful Ones to Watch by Orlando Magazine.
According to Orlando Magazine, Bunting O’Connor is a “ubiquitous” radio and podcast host whose online publication has become a “top online news resource for Orlando.” “My mom called it ‘Gay Fieri,’ because it’s gay me going to restaurants and eating,” he said with a laugh. While the hurricane gripped the state of Florida, Bunting O’Connor was busy updating the Bungalower Instagram account throughout the storm, sharing videos made by others based on what they were seeing, including people using kayaks to get around the city and others being saved by boaters.
“I was a gay, local journalist with a tie to Canada, so CBC rang me up and we got to talk on all of the different stations across the country. I think that’s when things really started to pick up for Bungalower and for me, just because people trusted what we were putting out,” he said.
