About the Media Training
The National Media Training took place in house parties
hosted by individuals like you across the country.
The two-hour house party included a training video,

The training was designed to help progressives gain
the skills to shape media coverage of important issues
in their communities, including:
- Working with a national organization to reinforce
a larger message
- Successfully planning and implementing an event
- Targeting and attracting local media coverage
- Following up and expanding coverage
- Tips for developing long-term relationships with
reporters
Each house party was designed for 10 to 25 people
and the CPL Action Network provided hosts and participants

This is a great opportunity for progressives across
the country to learn how we can work together to take
back the media.
