Live from our #askmediaanything, @emmacos of @thisisinsider on her pitching preferences: “Talking to anyone just once is not a great use of our time. We like pitch decks at Insider. We like news. Show me a story that I’ve written that you think this is like.”

Live from our #askmediaanything: “I love talking to founders, I love talking to VCs. I think the hard part of that relationship and it going through a flack is I want a personal relationship.” @emmacos of @thisisinsider

Shefali Kapadia of Financial Times

Live from our #askmediaanything, @skapadiaDC of @FinancialTimes on her pitching preferences: “One of my least favorite things is when there are three paragraphs of introduction… essentially burying the lede five paragraphs into the email.”

Live from our #askmediaanything: “The exclusive has to literally be exclusive, meaning we have the story and you’re not going to go a week later and give it to someone else...Just saying that something is an exclusive doesn’t make it a story.” @skapadiaDC of @FinancialTimes
