How do I build a media list for a PR campaign?

You can build a media list for a PR campaign by providing your story angle and target beats to the find-journalists skill. It automatically searches articles, enriches journalist data, and deduplicates results to ensure every contact is relevant to your pitch.

How does newsjack work for journalist discovery?

Newsjack works for journalist discovery by searching articles and extracting journalist data based on your target beats. This skill uses the newsjack CLI or MCP to enrich article-based data, verifying that each journalist fits your PR campaign's angle.

Can I use this to find relevant journalists without the newsjack CLI?

What is the best way to ensure a journalist fits my story angle?

The best way to ensure a journalist fits your story angle is to use automated enrichment and fit-checking on article-based data. This skill refines the media list by deduplicating results and verifying that every journalist's coverage matches your PR campaign angle.

Are there limitations to using automated journalist discovery for media lists?

A limitation of automated journalist discovery is that the primary enrichment depends on the newsjack CLI or MCP, requiring a fallback to local mode if unavailable. Additionally, the precision of your media list relies heavily on the clarity of your provided story angle and target beats.
