How to Use Light Reading's Editorial Calendar
This Editorial Calendar is meant as a guide to the topics Light Reading's editors plan to write about in original, feature-length reports during the next few months.

If your goal is to get your company or client mentioned in Light Reading's News Analysis articles, you should:
  1. Send an email to editors@lightreading.com introducing your client or company as a source in their top area of expertise.

  2. If necessary, explain in a few short sentences why your client is someone we should call and use as a source.

  3. Give us some time before following up. Rest assured, our editors do receive and read mail sent to editors@lightreading.com.
