Russ Choma's focus is primarily on legal and political news, with a particular emphasis on the United States. His coverage includes evolving stories, government announcements, breaking news, and legal policy regulation.
Given his focus on conservative politics, media criticism, Donald Trump, legal issues and labor unions in the US , pitches to Russ should offer expert analysis or unique insights into these specific areas. Think tanks, legal experts or political analysts who can provide informed commentary on ongoing cases or legislative developments would likely capture his interest.
As Russ focuses mainly on national (United States) news in the realm of politics and law within that context will be particularly effective when reaching out to him.
