Not enough data
Ethan Bernard's coverage heavily revolves around the steel industry, manufacturing, trade, automotive sector and labor union activities. He pays significant attention to data-driven insights and press releases related to these industries.
Given Ethan's focus on citing data and covering private sector announcements, he is likely interested in receiving pitches that offer exclusive access to industry reports, market analysis or expert commentary based on reliable data sources. Pitches should also highlight new developments within the steel industry including mergers & acquisitions, leadership changes or financial performance updates of key players.
