Not enough data
Richard Smoley’s coverage leans toward culture and ideas, with regular attention to religion, intellectual traditions, and broader social thought. He also writes on higher education and campus life, so pitches with a strong human-interest angle, institutional change, or a thoughtful take on current debates are more likely to fit.
He seems especially responsive to sources who can offer clear, reflective insight rather than just breaking news. Stories tied to universities, cultural trends, or religious communities may work well if they connect to larger social or historical currents.
His U.S. regional focus should be kept in mind for any outreach.
