What’s a Media Database?
A media database is a directory that consists of the contact information of individual members of the press.
These contacts can include journalists, producers, editors, reporters, social media influencers, bloggers, and many other titles.
Typically, these databases will include relevant email addresses, phone numbers, social media handles, and any other contact information that can be used to engage individual members of the media.
