Political Meet and Greet Editorial and Strategic Marketing Overview
News Coverage • News and opinion are different. Reporters write news stories; opinion editors write editorials based on candidate interviews and feedback from our editorial board. • News reporters write news stories based on emerging and/or ongoing community issues. Issue-based stories are timely and are published as they happen. • News reporters typically write candidate profiles and/or election advances. Profiles and advances will begin running at the end of September and will run through mid-October. • News stories appear in print as well as on our website and on our social media channels – Facebook, Twitter, etc.

Opinion/Editorial • LETTERS TO THE EDITOR: Letters to the editor should be no more than 300 words, and we will only publish one letter per month by a given author. The deadline for election-related letters is Oct. 29, 2012. After that date, we will only accept rebuttal letters. Our typical election “blackout” period begins the Friday prior to the election. • POINT OF VIEW/GUEST EDITORIALS: No more than 700 words. We run these as soon as we can, though sometimes there can be a backlog when we have a lot of submissions. Deadline for election-related columns is Oct. 29, 2012. We’ll consider rebuttal columns after that date. We will only publish one column per month by any given author. • ENDORSEMENTS: Endorsements are decided by our editorial board, which consists of the editor, opinion editor and reader members. We will contact candidates to schedule interviews. Endorsements meetings begin in mid-September and run through mid-October. We try to run endorsements prior to absentee ballots going out.
