Deadline: 5:00 PM EST - 29 June
Query:
As a writer for Business Insider and US News & World Report, I'm
looking for people who are currently opting to continue to stay
home to stay safe during the coronavirus pandemic--due to
concerns over the escalating case numbers and hospitalizations,
health concerns for yourself and other family members, fear of
catching the virus, etc--even as reopenings occur.
Requirements:
If you are opting to stay home to stay safe during the COVID-19
pandemic rather than going out in the reopenings, I'd love to
hear from you about your decision and your concerns--such as how
long you plan to shelter in place (such as whether you are
waiting for a vaccine to become available), whether you are
leaving your house for any essential errands or business at all,
whether you are exercising outdoors, how you are feeling about
your choice to stay home currently, whether you are doing so
with other family members or on your own, whether you know
others who are also staying home, whether you have a social
bubble that includes any other family members or friends who are
also sheltering in place, and anything else you would like to
share about your decision.

Query:
I am looking for experts (crypto exchanges, tradings platforms,
and mining pools) for an article about Ethereum 2.0 staking.
While little is known about the staking programs and platforms
that support them, I would like to understand:
1) How will the Ethereum staking process work on crypto
exchanges / pools? Is it really more profitable and convenient
for the user, given the fees for participating in the program?
2) Could this lead to the centralization of Ethereum staking on
exchanges? 3) How will the launch of staking programs on crypto
exchanges affect the trading dynamics of Ethereum? 4) What are
the cryptocurrency exchanges and pools that support staking?

Media Outlet: San Francisco Business Times
Deadline: 7:00 PM EST - 27 June
Query:
The tragic death of Michael Brown in Ferguson, Missouri, birthed
the Movement for Black Lives and a new generation of
internet-oriented social activists collected under the banner of
Black Lives Matter. In 2020 we have seen the movement grow to
new heights with the action spurred by yet another tragic death.
This time, everyone seems to agree, is different. One notable
sign has become the increasing willingness of some companies to
publicly support the movement. The article will explore the
shift in attitudes, what corporate philanthropic action happened
(or didn't) in the wake of 2014 and what leaders are planning
going forward.
Requirements:
Looking for people based or focused on the San Francisco Bay
Area if possible.

Media Outlet: Forbes
Deadline: 7:00 PM EST - 30 June
Query:
I'm writing a story about dense and often difficult-to-read
insurance contracts. Why are they so hard to read and
understand? What's the benefit to consumers? How do insurance
companies benefit from legalese? I'd love to hear from anyone
who has tried to read their own insurance contract? What did you
find? Did it change your purchasing decision? From legal and
insurance experts, I'd like to know if there are any insurance
companies with particularly difficult, or easy-to-understand,
contracts? How can someone read a contract and understand what's
in it, without hiring a lawyer?
Requirements:
Please read this before answering. I'd be very grateful if you
could send an initial response to my questions by email. Please
do not respond with a note that says you would like to be
considered for this story or want to set up a phone interview
with a source. I'm happy to consider you for this story. I've
included all of my questions in this query. Please take a minute
to briefly answer them. If a phone interview is necessary, I
will follow up right away. Kindly also include your full name
and a jargon-free, brief (two to three word) description of your
company or affiliation as you would like it to appear in the
article. I will do my absolute best to acknowledge that I
received your pitch and will make every effort to let you know
when the story appears. More information on my queries can be
