Kyle McKinnon's coverage spans a diverse range of local interest topics, including health, arts, and education. Given his focus on expert commentary and event coverage, he is likely to be receptive to pitches that offer access to local experts in the fields of healthcare, art conservation, academia or climate change education within the Delaware area.
Pitches should highlight expertise related to specific events or initiatives occurring in Delaware as well as the broader societal impact. For example: connecting with healthcare professionals specializing in diabetes prevention programs; local artists engaged in diversity initiatives; educators involved with climate change education efforts; and historians who can provide insights into World War I restoration projects are all potential areas for outreach.
Given Kyle’s geographic focus on Wilmington and Delaware more broadly, incorporating this localized angle into pitches will likely increase their appeal.
