How to pitch political journalists
Politics reporters cover government, elections, policy, campaigns and public affairs. They want on-the-record sources, documents, polling and fast, accurate responses.
- Political desks work to the news cycle, so pitch early in the day.
- Polling and original documents travel further than opinions.
- Be clear about what is on the record before you start talking.
