churchlady320: During Obama's term, I got daily press…

Ответ для Karoli

Have you signed up for them because you can EVEN if it's not your Rep or Senator. I stopped doing it because it flooded my inbox. I do follow Patty Murray and a few others here though. I for sure don't want alerts from Trump! DOJ dumped me. Guess they figured a Dem was not desirable.

If you did sign up for email from Dems and aren't getting them, you can-should-call their offices. I can't say this is true, but why are you NOT getting them? If they are sending but you're not receiving...wow. That's creepy.

Do you follow their social media accounts? I do and I get info all the time. And I never get anything from Rs. How are you getting those?

Agreed. I don't get info from many, and I sure don't get it from Rs.

The problem is that it reaches those of us who are active on social media, which is about 15%

Their PR folks send them to me because I’m the managing editor of a site that gets 4.3M page views every month. DC Dems are radio silent. I do get releases from one state Dem office holder

So what do you think they should be doing?

Getting on all Sunday shows and everything in between. Send out the press releases and the clips. Stop being polite and start being straightforward. Oliver Willis has many good suggestions. They should follow them.

How does one "get on all the shows" when you have to be invited? I did PR for years. It's a crap shoot who gets picked to be on. The guest, unless they're Hollywood famous, have no pull.

This is absurd. Those shows choose their guests and I don't know if you've noticed, but corporate media is quite biased against Dems. And Dems are straightforward and at times not at all polite (which leads to the media attacking them even more). This sounds like a you problem.

Pols push for airtime too. It's not a one-way street. Shows go where they'll get ratings and Rs understand better how to generate them. Dems could too just by speaking authentically and frankly about Rs. That would raise their media profile.

This shows a complete lack of understanding of the current media environment.

And frankly if you're a Dem then YOU should be a good messenger, as we all should be. Stop with the bitching about things we can't control and start spreading positive news about our party. As Marc Elias says, it's critical that we use our own town squares to promote Ds.

But of course that pro-Dems lane doesn't bring clicks and cash, now does it?

All anyone has to do is SIGN UP. Every citizen can do it. Don't need PR folks. If you're waiting for that, that's on YOU. I got them and am nobody special. Some have press releases on their web sites. Some offer a newsletter. Anyone can do it.

It is literally the first thing one does as a press secretary. You send your shit to everyone, not wait for them to come to you. In the old days you had to constantly update lists. Now all you have to do is use Muckrack. This is malpractice.

"use Muckrack"? Your English needs work. Ask your boss to get you a translator app or something.

In no instance do press secretaries send to ordinary citizens. But ordinary citizens these days can sign up for notices.

Send to you? Me? Since when? You have to sign up. Then you get them. Everyone can get press releases if they sign up. If she’s getting GOP releases she’s doing it wrong.

Karoli runs a major website. Press offices send their shit to them just like other reporting outlets. What the fuck are you taking about? Do you think electeds don’t sent shit to Josh Marshall? What the fuck are you talking about? You send to all media outlets you can. Sign up for press releases?

Can you prove you're an American voter and not a disinformation account? It's easy to do. Just grab a piece of mail, cover all info except city/state, add an identifying note, and post.

CITIZENS may sign up for press releases, at least with Dems. What in the world makes this a bad thing?

So this is increasingly an argument of how magnificent Karoli is not how one should take responsibility for getting info. We never heard of her, and maybe only the GOP have. Hard to know. But if she REALLY wants Dem input, SHE CAN SIGN UP FOR IT.

Thats not true. I get hounded every week for donations. When really want to communicate something, they have no problem. Look how amazing their communication was when it came to student protesters. They were on point, and all of a sudden they knew how to repeat a message in unison for weeks!

All she has to do is sign up for them. Everyone can. The ones who contact her are contacting the rest of us, too. It's not because she an 'influencer'. It's because she's a voter.
