Not enough data
Kate Yoder's coverage is primarily focused on climate change, with an emphasis on scientific and policy-related aspects. She frequently cites data and government announcements, indicating a preference for fact-based reporting and insights from official sources.
Given her interest in noise pollution, fake news about climate change, and global support for climate action, Kate may be interested in pitches related to environmental science or public perception of environmental issues. When reaching out to her, consider offering access to experts who can provide data-driven analysis or legal perspectives on environmental policies.
As she has a national focus within the United States but also specifically covers Portland and Oregon, relevant local angles could enhance pitch relevance when targeting her.
