DNC committee extends media access to social media influencers to reconnect young voters

Published



The Democratic National Convention committee is inviting social media influencers to cover its August convention for the first time in history, according to a Thursday press release.

Content creators are able to apply for credentials that will grant them privileges similar to those given to traditional media outlets, including access to key areas of Chicago’s United Center, the opportunity to connect with surrogates and VIPs, video clips of the convention for those covering the event remotely, and “logistical assistance tailored to their needs.”
