Why journalists use experts.
How they

How you can become an expert for the media.

Слайд 8Let’s start with the why. For that, we rewind to 1960.



Слайд 10Until the ‘60s, journalists choose sources based on their political standing.

The politician decides what’s important. The newspaper journalist writes it.

Слайд 12Most of the experts interviewed are ‘hard scientists’: biologists, doctors, physicists.


Слайд 14The rise of television changes that.


Слайд 16Because newspapers can’t compete with the speed of live television, newspaper

reporters reinvent themselves.

Слайд 17Because newspapers can’t compete with the speed of live television, newspaper

reporters reinvent themselves.
Instead of reporting what happens, they explain why things happen.

Слайд 19Also, journalists become aware of the existence of “spin”.

Слайд 21So increasingly, journalists need experts, for two reasons:

To help the journalist understand current events (sparring)

Слайд 24Between 1961 and 2001, the number of experts quoted in print

journalism increased 700 percent.

Слайд 26So how do journalists pick these experts?


Слайд 28Turns our there is research about that too.


Слайд 29In 92 % of cases, it’s the journalist who chooses the

expert.

Слайд 30And this is how they find them:

50 % of the

times, journalists call someone they know or have seen quoted elsewhere!

Слайд 31And this is how they find them:

Only 10 % of

the time it’s someone they find while surfing the internet.

Слайд 33It’s called the Matthew Effect


Слайд 34It’s called the Matthew Effect

“For to all those who have, more

will be given, and they will have an abundance”
(Matthew, 25:29)

Слайд 36More numbers: in 35 % of the cases, journalists call experts

that they never mention in their final story.

Слайд 38This happens for 2 reasons: “there’s no room for more quotes”

and “the expert says the same thing as all the others”. (It’s the polite way to say: they are boring!)


Слайд 40What if… I don’t know what all that means for me?



Слайд 42We think it means 5 things:


Слайд 43Journalists seem to work mostly from memory (or speeddial, which is

the same). So it’s important to stay on their radar.

That means checking in with them regularly, by e-mail, Twitter, Facebook, Google+ or whatever channel they prefer.

It can be as simple as favoriting a Tweet of theirs.

Thing 1


Слайд 44Likewise, it’s important to stay visible in media. The easiest way

to do so is to be very active in trade press and/or local press.

Often, journalists follow local and trade publications to stay up to date with new trends.

The local and trade press is your best friend.

Thing 2


Слайд 45Start a blog. While 10 % online search isn’t much, it

is a way to be recognised.

Also, blogs are an excellent way to stay in touch with journalists. You can tweet them a link to your blog, asking their feedback or input. (Or you can quote them in your blogs).

You might also send them your blog before publishing it – maybe they’re interested in running it as a guest contribution.

Thing 3


Слайд 46Be original and bring perspective.

The research shows that your quotes

will end up on the cutting floor if you don’t come up with something surprising to say.

Prepare your media interventions. Try to think what other experts will add, and try to come up with a novel idea, a surprising reference or a strong metaphor for what’s happening.

Thing 4


Слайд 47Lastly, try to have an opinion.

An expert is someone who knows

his stuff, but who is also not afraid to call the game.

Remember: journalists call experts to voice the opinions that they themselves can’t (because they need to stay objective). If you refuse to do this, they will stop calling you.
