Who to pitch at WHDH 7News

What the WHDH 7News data says about pitching

• TV segments are booked by producers and the assignment desk. 9 of the 48 people here are producers or on the assignment desk, so start there for anything visual or time-sensitive.
• 11 editors decide what runs. Pitch the editor of the desk that fits your story; pitch a reporter when you have an angle for their beat.
• Match the desk first. Business & finance is the largest desk here with 4 people; a story outside a reporter's desk rarely gets a reply.
• 60% of the staff we list are in Boston, so local angles, local sources and local data carry weight.
• Staff are spread across Boston, Massachusetts, Tolland, Braintree. Pitch the person nearest your story.
