Reporter email Etiquette, Or Why The Perception is You are Arrogant

I’ve written emails to six newspaper reporters over the past two weeks and have not gotten one response. Not one.They have been small to mid-size newspapers. (20-50,000 circulation.) I’m not talking about a blog post comment, I’m talking about a personalized email about a subject they have written about.They all can’t be assholes can they?I think it’s just laziness. Here’s my tip: If you are a reporter and get an email from a reader.Reply: Thanks for reading and writing. Send.
