Pitching Insights

Earl Hopkins’ coverage is strongly tied to Philadelphia’s local culture, with a clear emphasis on event-driven pieces and timely listings. He looks especially receptive to pitches around upcoming festivals, live performances, neighborhood art, and other things-to-do coverage that can help readers plan their week or weekend.

He also appears open to stories with a civic or community angle when there’s a public-facing hook, especially if the angle is current, visual, or tied to a notable local development. Pitches that offer timely access, strong local relevance, or a fresh take on a popular city event are likely to fit best.

Because his focus is Philadelphia, outreach should keep that city and its surrounding area front and center.
