United States (National)
Not enough data
Geoff Bennett's coverage primarily revolves around government and politics, including legal issues, breaking news, and expert commentary. Given this focus, he would likely be receptive to pitches from political analysts, legal experts specializing in public policy or governmental affairs, as well as individuals with expertise in international relations.
Bennett's articles often explore evolving stories and breaking news related to US domestic and foreign policies. Pitches offering insights into ongoing political developments or analysis of recent events are likely to resonate with him. Additionally, given his interest in legal policy regulation and government announcements, sources with insider knowledge of legislative processes or those who can provide expert commentary on significant policy changes may capture his attention.
As Geoff focuses on national (United States) content without a specific geographic focus beyond that scope; pitches should align with the US-centric nature of his reporting.
