Not enough data
Gary Trust's focus is mainly on music, particularly Billboard charts and top artists. He heavily relies on data sources for his articles and occasionally uses press releases as well. Given this, Gary may be interested in receiving pitches related to music industry trends, analysis of chart performances, or stories around popular artists like Mariah Carey and Miley Cyrus.
As he covers a wide range of topics within the entertainment sector with an emphasis on music, pitching stories about emerging trends in the music industry or newsworthy events related to popular musicians could resonate with him.
Given that there is no specific geographic focus evident from his coverage attributes nor article titles, it would be best to tailor pitches based solely on their relevance to the global music industry or specific artists covered by Gary.
