How to pitch science journalists
Science reporters cover research findings, space, climate science, biology, physics and the people behind discoveries. They want the paper, an accessible explanation and a researcher who can explain why it matters.
- Share the paper under embargo with a plain-English summary on top.
- Lead with the finding, then the method. Skip the institution's history.
- Images, diagrams or video of the work make a pitch far more usable.
