Talk to us
Everything on Capitol Communicator starts with a note to us. Here’s what each thing is and who to tell. A form for each comes with the site’s next phase.
News, moves and events
Story ideas, announcements and photos go to the editor for your region. So do People on the Move: new hires, promotions, retirements and account wins. Every move is listed free. Featured moves, with lead placement, a photo and a slot in The Brief, start in March 2027.
Phil Rabin, Washington, DC and Richmond editor. Email Phil
Jeffrey Davis, Maryland regional editor, covering Baltimore, Annapolis, Columbia, southern Pennsylvania and Delaware. Email Jeff
Events for the calendar go to Paul Duning, our publisher. The button opens an email with everything we need to list it.
The Brief
The Brief is our free email newsletter: events on Monday mornings, news on Thursday mornings. Get The Brief. To get your event or news into it, send it to your editor.
The Newswire
The Newswire is for press releases. Starting in 2027 you can publish a release on Capitol Communicator. It runs labelled as a release, says who it’s from, and stays apart from our own reporting. A release that’s news gets picked up in The Brief, and agencies that release often can take a monthly plan. More on the Newswire.
Capitol Communicator Connections
Connections are small get-togethers that people in the community host themselves: drinks on a Tuesday, coffee before work, a walk-through of your new office. Pick a date, a place and a host, and tell us about it. We promote it in The Brief, and when you send photos afterwards, we publish the write-up. To host one, email Paul: the button opens an email asking for the date, the place and who’s hosting.
Capitol Conversations
Coming later: twenty minutes on the record with one of your leaders. We record it, edit it and publish it as an interview, a feature and short clips your team can share. Tell us if you’d like to be in one of the first.
Advertising, sponsorship and research
Sponsorships, the display unit beside every story and the sponsor slot in The Brief are open now. From January 2027, The Pulse asks the region’s marketing, PR and media people what’s changing each quarter, fielded by research partner MX8 Labs; sponsors can put a question in, or commission a study of their own.
