Contact National Media

  • If your campaign has widespread interest, you may want to contact national media outlets along with your local media.
  • First, you'll want to draft a press release about your campaign (SEE LINK).
  • Next, create a list of broadcast, print, and radio outlets (don't forget NPR!) you'd like to contact. You can find their phone numbers online.
  • Call media to let them know about your campaign and get the e-mail addresses of the appropriate editors.
  • Distribute your press release.
  • Be sure to follow up with media contacts to make sure they received your press release and have all the details they need.
