Not enough data
Tandy's coverage focuses on local news, particularly centered around Harlem and New York City. She appears to value expert commentary and announcements related to government & politics, crime, culture & society, as well as specific events in the area.
Given her interest in criminal justice reform, racial justice, mental health, and community events like Kwanzaa celebrations in Harlem, she may be interested in pitches from experts or activists involved with similar initiatives or events within New York City. Additionally, individuals with unique insights into local government and political developments would likely catch her attention.
As Tandy’s focus is mainly localized to New York City and Harlem specifically but also covers broader topics such as racial justice and crime at times it would be beneficial for potential sources to have a clear understanding of these areas when reaching out.
