This year, the Drum Major Institute for Public Policy invited PhilanthroMedia to join the “rapid response” team it establishes each year to advance progressive analysis of the President’s State of the Union address.
Our interview, conducted with DMI’s Andrea Batista-Schlesinger, was posted to YouTube within hours of the address. The summary (2:18 minutes) has garnered more than 3,600 hits on DMI’s YouTube channel in the five months since. While it initially harnessed a news peg to capture viewers, it continues to provide cogent, user-friendly access to DMI’s perspectives on Administration policies.
Are you waiting to be invited into the newsroom to comment on issues of importance to your constituents? Are you taking advantage of the tools that now enable you to make your own news? Pm is here to help.
