How does one person contact the press to have them cover an issue about social injustice of local significance

Answer 1

You could pick up a local newspaper and find the reporter's name by looking for his by-line and call them at the paper with your issue, just make sure that it is the kind of story that they cover.

Answer 2

Well you can call and ask for whoever handles whatever the issue is. II assume you are talking about a local problem significant to your community.
If necessary, make an appointment with the reporter. Take pictures or any other kind of proof of the injustice.
Then follow up. If it is a really big issue, and the local press is not interested, take it to a larger news source.Some of the major television stations have a toll free number you can call also.
And of course you can always write a :Letter to the Editor but there is no guarantee that it will be printed.
If none of these things work, or none of the other suggestions offered here, you might try enlisting the aid of someone in your neighborhood to bring the matter to the proper authorities.
