Reaching Journalists After 6:00 P.M.

Content: Also, major publications like The New York Times will often include video. Traditionally, newspapers operate on a 24-hour news cycle—digital versions post more often. Blogs
Because there are so many blogs out there, even though they are updated more often than print media, it's hard to make blanket statements about them. A blog can offer recipes for Southwestern entrees or business leadership advice. Most blogs are written by one person with a keyboard. They might post three times a day or once every month. In general, blogs cover evergreen topics with tips, advice, and other useful information. TV Stations
TV news operates day and night, and not just in regard to the national 24-hour cable networks like CNN and MSNBC. Local television stations always have a morning news show, a noon news show, a 5:00 or 6:00 p.m. show, and a 10:00 or 11:00 p.m. show. Local TV news has the most amount of airtime and therefore is the easiest venue to receive news coverage.
