These include community newspapers, tv and radio stations, internet news services and corporate / non-profit communication departments who are always on the lookout for news that will interest their readers, listeners, viewers, members and employees.

Our comprehensive list of MN news outlets & platforms places your news in front of a potential audience of more than 5.5 million Minnesotans. We regularly update the following list and send out your press release via broadcast email to the appropriate editors, writers, producers, program directors and news managers.

These MN news outlets include:

  • 264 community newspapers throughout the state.
  • 19 student newspapers at MN college & universities.
  • 266 MN internet news platforms.
  • 17 MN newstand magazines.
  • 19 MN television stations.

Your association with the MN Field Trip & Activity Library will provide your content with advanced credibility. If the editors, writers, producers and program directors like what they read in your release and want more information, they will either build a story for publication or broadcast, or they may contact you directly for more in-depth content.

Your PR will be reaching many consumers. In addition to these news outlets, you press release can also include communication professionals, educators, school districts, non-profits and group planners who may not yet be using the MN Field Trip Library. You can direct us to send to specific categories in addition to news outlets.

HOW TO WRITE A PRESS RELEASE THAT WILL GET READ

Forbes Magazine published an article by Robert Wynne on writing press releases that will get read. This is definitely worth the read for the few minutes you invest.

FORMATTING AND APPROVING YOUR PRESS RELEASE

After you submit your press release to us, we will format it (and maybe make occasional edits) and then send a test copy to you for approval. Once you approve it (yes, you can approve it), we then will send it to the entire Minnesota list of MN news outlets.
