We’re big proponents of contributing content (guest posts, op-eds, commentaries, etc.) to media outlets read by your target audience. Such a strategy can help get your name – and your valuable expertise – in the press, and in front of your key demographic.
With this in mind, below is a list of 10 politics-focused media outlets that currently accept op-ed submissions and / or guest content.
Before submitting to any of these outlets (or, any outlet at all), get a good feel for the type of content they publish, and read carefully through each outlet’s guidelines for submission.
