Liz Ruskin's coverage is heavily focused on local government and politics in Alaska, with an emphasis on Indigenous issues, conservation, campaign finance, accessibility, public safety, and climate change. She also covers a wide range of topics related to the Biden administration.
Given her focus on local Alaskan issues and politics within the state, outreach should emphasize expertise or perspectives tied directly to Alaska's political landscape. Topics such as Indigenous rights and conservation efforts in Alaska could be particularly relevant for pitching ideas.
In addition to local Alaskan news, Liz also covers broader national issues that impact the state of Alaska. Therefore, providing insights into how federal policies affect the region would likely resonate with her reporting interests.
