In this episode of the BuzzStream Podcast, host Vince Nero sits down with Mike Fahey, founder of Fahey Communications and a 15-year newsroom veteran (Boston, Baltimore, four Emmys) turned political press secretary and PR agency owner. Mike breaks down how newsrooms are actually structured, why pitch timing matters more than most PR pros realize, how shrinking newsroom staff is changing what gets covered, and the real strategy behind "newsjacking" a client into the news cycle — plus a few behind-the-scenes stories from campaigns, GMA bookings, and near-misses with the New York Times.Timestamps:0:00 – Intro3:44 – How a newsroom is actually structured10:01 – Building media lists that pay off for years13:46 – TV vs. digital pitching & proof of performance18:21 – Case study: pitching a data/survey story the smart way22:42 – Shrinking newsrooms & the rise of AI pitching risks31:37 – Newsjacking: how to make any brand newsworthy39:07 – Campaign trail stories & working with Steve Laffey45:14 – Final advice & where to find MikeGuest: Mike Fahey, Founder, Fahey Communications: https://www.linkedin.com/in/mifahey/https://www.faheycomm.com/https://www.buzzstream.com/listiq/See the full transcript: https://www.buzzstream.com/blog/newsrooms-with-mike-fahey/👍 Like this episode, subscribe for more, and share it with your PR colleagues.💬 Have a question for Mike?
