Contact preferences

I prefer pitches via email in the early morning (between 6am and 9am). I sometimes respond if I'm not going to cover the story you pitch me. If emailing, my ideal email length is 2–3 paragraphs and limited follow-up emails are ok. I never check newswires for new story ideas. If you're pitching me, for about 95% of you, the best way to do so is by email. If it's an urgent/breaking story and you're giving me an exclusive, feel free to call or text.

Biography

Andrew Feinberg is a veteran Washington, DC-based journalist who has written for numerous outlets, including The Hill, Communications Daily, Newsweek, The Independent, Politico Magazine, The Sentinel Newspapers, Washington Business Journal, and Breakfast Media.

What was your first job as a journalist?

My first "real" job in journalism was at Communications Daily, who found me when I was just a random tech blogger.

Have you ever used a typewriter?

Yup. My parents had an IBM Selectric when I was growing up. It was great. I miss typewriters...I feel like I was born 40 years too late

How is social media changing news?

Its hurting the craft of journalism. When everything is "NOW NOW NOW" people feel like taking time to get it right is impossible.
