Deadline: 9:00 PM EST - 18 June

Query:

Thank you for taking the time to read. I am writing a piece for
SF Weekly investigating whether or not the Nextdoor algorithm
encourages people to call the police. The website Nextdoor has
gotten in trouble recently for it's "Karen problem" (quote from
The Verge). This refers to the high amount of posts *about*
needing to or having already called the police to a scene in the
neighborhood as well as the way users police each other. I am
focusing specifically on the high amount of posts *about*
needing to or having already called the police to a scene. I'm
curious if the algorithm might encourage users who click on a
few of posts in this genre to see them over and over again,
promote them in their newsfeed, etc.

Requirements:

Looking for someone who knows how social media algorithms work.
Knowing how they are coded would be great, but more than that I
am curious what is common on social media platforms, what might
be unusual about Nextdoor's algorithm compared to other social
media platforms, and what industry standards are. Someone who
has worked at another social media company or knows a lot about
the social media business space would be ideal.

Name: Alissa Irei SearchSecurity

Category: General

Email: query-axan@helpareporter.net

Media Outlet: SearchSecurity

Deadline: 9:00 PM EST - 17 June

Query:

I'm working on a feature article about Forrester's "Six Types of
CISO" framework (https://bit.ly/3hz1Zbs) and am interested in
hearing from more real-world CISOs about their on-the-ground
experiences:

- Do you see yourself in Forrester's framework? i.e. Are you a
transformational CISO, post-breach CISO, tactical/operational
CISO, compliance/risk guru, steady state CISO, and/or
customer-facing evangelist CISO? Or none of the above?

- How useful and applicable do you personally find this
framework? Would you use it in weighing whether or not to accept
a particular CISO job offer? Do you think it can help
enterprises better recruit and retain CISOs that meet their
needs?

- Do you agree with the Forrester analysts that when a CISO is
dissatisfied with their job, and/or when an organization is
dissatisfied with its CISO, that's often because the CISO's
personality doesn't align with the organization's wants and
needs, and vice versa? From your perspective, do you think such
mismatches contribute to high turnover rates in the CISO role?

- Have you ever held a CISO position that was an ideal fit? What
did that look like and how did it come about?

- Have you ever held or considered a CISO position that was a
less-than-ideal fit? Would you say you were one type of CISO,
and the organization was looking for another type? (If your
commentary is sensitive in nature -- i.e. discussing previous
and current professional positions -- I can avoid identifying
you in my article, upon request. Just let me know and we can
discuss.)

Requirements:

Must be a CISO who can speak to their real-world job
experiences. As previously noted, if commentary is sensitive in
nature -- i.e. discussing previous and/or current professional
positions -- I can avoid namingyou in my article, upon request.
Just let me know and we can discuss.)

Category: General

Email: query-axbv@helpareporter.net

Media Outlet: Refinery29

Deadline: 7:00 PM EST - 17 June

Query:

I would like to speak with a professor/expert on organizational
behavior how talking about politics at work -- usually thought
of as unprofessional, ill-advised -- has been reconsidered in
recent years, especially in light of the most recent BLM
protests and the expectation that our workplaces need to show
explicit solidarity for racial justice and ending police
brutality.

Studies show that younger workers especially care more about
company mission and values than previous gens, at times even
over pay, and more and more people seem to be rejecting the idea
that work is a place to be politically neutral. My story will
talk about why this has happened, what it means for how we work,
and couch it in the context of the protests. If your area of
research is related to this subject, I would love speak to you!
Thank you.

Deadline: 7:00 PM EST - 18 June

Query:

Billed as "yogic sleep," or something on the edge of sleep and
deep mindful meditation, Yoga Nidra has gained traction in
Western yoga practices in recent years. But what is it? For
EatingWell magazine, I'm looking to explore the history and
purported benefits of yoga nidra, how one practices it, and its
affects on anxiety/PTSD etc. How is it different from yoga and
common meditation techniques?

Requirements:

I am looking for diverse voices (WOC, BIPOCs, and South Asian
practitioners/experts to the front of the line) and yoga nidra
practitioners with extensive experience and history with the
practice. I am looking to center non-white voices because this
practice's history is tied to India, and I do not want to erase
that important context. I am not looking for any other kind of
yoga expert without specific yoga nidra experience. I would also
be interested in speaking to therapists or psychiatrists of all
backgrounds who have specific experience integrating yoga nidra
into their practice.
