Prepare by following five national media journalists on Twitter.
Make sure they work for a well-known media company and have
a verified Twitter account. The five journalists should be from
five different media outlets.
Review the journalists’ Twitter posts for the past week.
Examine how often they post, what type of posts they make (are
they commenting on current events or promoting their own
stories?), and how many people engage with them (replies,
retweets, favorites). Do they make any personal tweets or jokes,
or are they all business?
For the discussion, choose two of the journalists and post your
observations from above. Write a very brief bio of each
journalist (name, organization, beat, etc.). State your opinion on
the quality and frequency of their posts. From what you can
glean about their personality and work habits from their Twitter
account, discuss how you would approach each journalist to
pitch a story idea.
