Category: Business and Finance

Email: query-b1uo@helpareporter.net

Media Outlet: Kivo Daily

Deadline: 2:00 PM EST - 24 July

Query:

Influencer marketing can be scary if you are new to it or if
your budget isn't as big as your goals. However, with a bit of
creativity and communication, sometimes we can turn challenges
into great opportunities, getting great collaborators on the
way.

Requirements:

Where to find influencers to work with you? What can you offer
to content creators if you don't have a large budget and need to
spend sensibly?

When replying, keep your mind open for the term 'influencer'.
There is no right or wrong answer, however, the old and tired
idea that someone with lots of followers can help you to sell a
product or service no longer applies in the real world. Not all
'influencers', big or small, can genuinely influence. So, what
works for you.

Answer should come in full and jargon-free. Please don't send
email suggesting: 'call me to discuss it as I have decades of
experience about that subject'. I won't - and being very frank
upfront here, so we both save time.

It is an exciting topic and looking forward to some
unusual/creative insights.

Important: you have to have tested any solution you might offer
as an answer to the article.

following, and become popular on YouTube? --What are some time

started? These can be free or paid. --Do you have advice for
using YouTube SEO, growing a subscriber base, and how often to
post new videos? --Any other info you'd like to include on
this topic? --I'll also need three to five high-res images for

43) Summary: How to consume art/media after someone has been "cancelled"

Name: Elizabeth Yuko Lifehacker

Category: Entertainment and Media

Email: query-b215@helpareporter.net

Media Outlet: Lifehacker

Deadline: 9:00 AM EST - 24 July

Query:

The question of what to do with a creator's body of work after
they've been "cancelled" is not a new one, but it has been
present a lot lately, since JK Rowling's recent comments on
trans individuals. In this case, you have almost a generation of
young people who grew up with her book and movies, now having to
reconsider if/how they're still able to consume them. This is a
SERVICE piece for Lifehacker focusing on what a person should do
if an artist/creator who is very important to them has said/done
something bad. The point here is not to debate cancel culture in
general, but instead provide actionable things people can do
when evaluating their own media/pop culture consumption.

Requirements:

I'm looking to hear from a variety of experts on this (both in
and out of academia) -- as long as this is an area they've
already worked on/studied/written about/have experience working
in (and not just throwing in their own comments for the hell of
it/they happen to have an opinion on it).

Specifically, here are my questions: What should someone do
when an artist who is very important to them does something
untoward or even illegal or expresses intolerant views? Can you
continue to ethically consume that person's work? Should you
completely divest yourself from their creations? Can you
continue to read/watch/listen to them as long as you make sure
to do so in a way that does not promote them or result in them
profiting? Can you separate art and artist (if so, how)?

Again, the idea here is to provide people with
strategies/tools/solutions for what to do when they feel
betrayed by an artist/creator.
