Recently, I had another opportunity to travel the state to meet with some members of the media and secure coverage for one of our clients, The Arizona Division of Occupational Safety and Health.

Abbie Fink | Jan 26, 2015
For the past two years, I have participated in an alumni panel for ASU’s Cronkite School during homecoming activities. Julie Cart has been part of the panel both of those years. We had some great conversations and I thought it would be fun to profile her here on Media Monday. Our other panelist this year […]

#MediaMonday – Stuart Cassidy
Scott Hanson | Dec 22, 2014
Since it’s Christmas week, today’s Media Monday is all about Santa Claus. It’s not about uninhabited Santa Claus, Ariz., which is 14 miles northwest of Kingman. Nor is it about Santa Claus, Ga., which has several Christmas and reindeer-themed street names: Candy Cane Road, December Drive, Rudolph Way, Dancer Street, Prancer Street, and Sleigh Street. […]

#MediaMonday- Buzz Jackson
Kelly Potts | Dec 8, 2014
It’s no secret that I am a huge country music fan, and growing up in Tucson, the only radio station I listened to was KiiM-FM 99.5. When watching the Country Music Association Awards in November, I was so excited to see that there was a radio personality winner from Tucson! Today’s #MediaMonday comes to us […]

#BookClub – Good Self, Bad Self
Kelly Potts | Dec 3, 2014
It’s no secret that I’m obsessed with Scandal, so when it came time for this month’s #BookClub I HAD to read Judy Smith’s (the real-life Olivia Pope) Good Self, Bad Self. Smith’s website bio reads like the makings of a fantastic television show (obviously Shonda Rhimes thought the same): “Perhaps best known in media circles […]

Shticks That Work
Scott Hanson | Dec 2, 2014
While watching the local news recently, I thought it was interesting that KPNX-TV’s (NBC) weekend weatherman goes by Dr. Matt Pace. Commendable, for sure, that he has earned his PhD. I don’t ever remember another broadcaster going by “Dr.,” other than former coach and National Basketball Association TV analyst Dr. Jack Ramsey. So – I’m […]

Abbie Fink | Nov 10, 2014
Regular readers of our blog know that we do a weekly feature called Media Monday, where we ask a member of the media to tell us a little bit about themselves.
