We all know the stakes - journalists receive hundreds of pitches daily, and your subject line determines whether yours gets read or binned.

So can #AI help us cut through the noise with compelling, relevant #media #pitch hooks?

Most #AI content for #communications is:

❌ Breathless tech evangelism
❌ Vendor marketing disguised as insight
❌ Academic theory with no application

@AppliedCommsAI is different:

✅ Real experiments
✅ Honest reviews
✅ Practical tools
