Garnering TV coverage for your nonprofit’s top stories can be challenging, so CSPRC has put together a panel of experts to share today’s best paths to exposure through our region’s top news stations. Speakers from KSDK, KMOV, FOX2, and KPLR will identify upcoming programming planned at each station and discuss best points of contact. Panelists will also explain unique Web exposure opportunities at each television station such as Information University, stlmomsworld.com, askarchy.com, and metromix.com.

  • Catherine Barker, Executive Producer, FOX2 in the Morning, KTVI Channel 2
  • Darin Copeland, Night Assignment Editor, KSDK Channel 5
  • Nancy Lee, Assignment Editor, KPLR Channel 11
  • Steve Perron, Special Producer, KMOV Channel 4

Come join CSPRC to learn how to best make media inroads from the assignment editors and show producers who make the big decisions about what we see on TV. A popular CSPRC tradition, the August luncheon focuses on both innovative new (and tried and true) ways to garner media coverage in one particular field each year—print, TV, or radio.
