important? How do doctors feel about patient's Googling their
symptoms? Can Google be helpful in any way? What else should

email marketing-related ideas small to medium-sized merchants
can implement to make the most of the BFCM sales and get an edge
over their competition.

We're looking for a range of suggestions from how they can
mitigate potential problems to how they can make the most of the
current situation.

your subscriber list now'. It should be COVID related.

Experience in email marketing, ecommerce, and/or digital
marketing, etc.

Name: Erik Martin Speech Technology Magazine

Category: General

Email: query-bbk3@helpareporter.net

Media Outlet: Speech Technology Magazine

Deadline: 1:00 PM EST - 7 October

Query:

My name is Erik Martin and I am a freelance writer for Speech
Technology Magazine (www.speechtechmag.com). I'm looking to
interview speech technology experts, voice-based information
companies, artificial intelligence experts, regulatory experts,
and other related professionals for the following story topic:

The Regulatory Landscape for Data-Driven Voice Solutions. This
article will explore how new government regulations, like the
European Union's General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and
the California Consumer Protection Act (CCPA), and others will
affect what voice-based information companies can collect
(companies whose solutions allow businesses to collect and store
voice data, like voiceprints used for customer identity
verification, etc.), how they can use it, what they can do with
it, how they can store it, and what they need to do to protect
it.

Below is a list of questions I'm seeking answers to for this
story. I can only conduct email interviews, whereby you or your
suggested sources types up written responses to my questions
below that I can use as quotes in my story (that's also often
easier and ensures no accidental misquoting). My deadline is
Wednesday, October 7, before noon central. Please e-mail me back
your interest and availability or your typed up answers to these
questions:

QUESTIONS 1. Overall, how would you summarize and describe the
state of government regulation - particularly in the United
States - when it comes to data collected, used, and stored by
voice-based information companies? 2. Can you please trace the
timeline/evolution of regulations in this space? 3. Please
explain what new/recent government regulations are in effect or
have been proposed that are significant and designed to affect
what voice-based information companies can collect, use, store,
and protect data (e.g., GDPR, CCPA, etc.). 4. Do you believe
it's important that state/national governments get involved in
this issue and enforce more regulations on speech data
companies? Why/why not? 5. What effect can/will these
regulations have on what speech data companies can collect and
what they can do with the data? 6. What unique threats might
speech data be subject to that would necessitate greater
regulation? Please provide one or more examples. 7. What steps
should voice-based information companies be taking to prevent
these threats/risks? Please provide details and specific
recommendations (e.g., Requirements around how customers should
be notified that their voice may be recorded, etc.). 8. Are
there any potential risks of over-regulation, which could for
example stifle speech tech innovation or the ability for these
voice-based information companies to sufficiently conduct
business? 9. Can you also suggest one or more other experts I
should try to interview for this story (if so, please provide
contact information)? 10. Any other tips, thoughts, comments or
ideas on this topic you'd like to add? 11. What is your full
name, title, company, and city/state headquarters?

Deadline: 1:00 PM EST - 2 October

Query:

Hello. My name is Erik Martin, and I am a reporter with CTW
Features. We will be publishing a nationally syndicated special
section called "Your kids and the coronavirus" in late
fall/early winter that will publish in newspapers and websites
across the country (visit https://tinyurl.com/ejmctwfeatures
for past syndicated content samples from CTW Features). For one
of the stories running in this section, I'm looking to interview
parents, child psychologists, physicians, technology experts,
and child experts for the following story:

Zooming ahead with your kids: Use videoconferencing to connect
your children with friends and relatives. It's easy for kids to
be disappointed when they can't visit with friends or loved ones
in person due to coronavirus. This story will suggest ways that
parents can get their kids connected to these loved ones via
videoconferencing and suggest ways to schedule
consistent/regular video meetings that your kids can look
forward to. I can only accept full-sentence written responses
(via email) that I can use as quotes. My deadline is noon
central, Friday, October 2.

QUESTIONS: 1. How can it be challenging for families and
children (especially younger children) to stay in touch with
friends and relatives during coronavirus, especially with social
distancing and mask wearing rules in place? 2. Why is it
important for parents and families to limit their children's
contact/exposure with friends and relatives during the pandemic?
3. Explain how families should consider using videoconferencing
tools like Zoom (any others you'd recommend?) to connect their
kids with friends and relatives and loved ones, especially when
they cannot be physically present. What are the benefits to
kids? 4. Please suggest tips for best ways to use Zoom to
connect kids with these people (e.g., set up scheduled online
play dates at a set day/time every week; check in with grandma
and grandpa every Saturday afternoon; arrange for monthly
extended family reunions online that everybody participates in,
etc.). 5. To what extent should parents allow kids to
schedule/set up/use Zoom independently/by themselves? For what
types of children and age groups is this appropriate? 6. What
Zoom rules need to be established and communicated clearly to
children and why? 7. Any other thoughts, tips, or suggestions on
this topic? 8. What is your full name, title, company,
city/state location, and email address?
