At this Media Summit, I will talk with All-Star Black journalists about their career, beat and newsroom pressures today. The climate for black journalists is very intense. Diversity is really needed in the newsroom and #blackspeakersmatter. I will probe to see how Black speakers and subject matter experts can make their job easier – and get their stories told.
I will ask each media pro how many pitches, press kits and DMs they deal with weekly; what they like and don’t like about each one.
Why the Media Summit:
➡ Journalists may be missing good stories. Many Black experts and speakers don’t know how to get stories to the right person.
➡ Black speakers and authors spend hours per week trying to locate media contacts and pitching journalists – and the journalists can tell in a few seconds if a pitch is relevant to them.
Here’s the mission, focus:
- How to Get Media Attention

Hello Ms. Perry. I attended the Friday night session of Virtual Media Summit but was unable to attend the Saturday sessions. Will video of those sessions be available for viewing in the near future? I found Friday night to be very informative and look forward to viewing the Saturday line-up. I look forward to viewing your upcoming session in the Publishing in Color Conference.
