The fax number at KPCC is 626.585.3160. The best way to get on our story assignments is to call the desk after you fax your story, and ask for Ronnie Branford, assignment editor. Our Fax is 323.460.3275. We prefer faxes over email. We just like that piece of paper to look at, said Mottek.
Live interviews are another option.
Both KNX s Frank Mottek and KPCC Larry Mantle prefer having an interview by phone, than an audio feed, because there are other questions needed to be asked. As for exclusive stories, it s an over used term, and is not appealing, said KPCC s Frank Stoltze. There is no matrix formula to covering news say Mottek and Mantle. Know what station your calling before you pick up the phone, said Mottek. You be surprised how many people call and ask what the name of the DJ s are at our station and what kind of music we play, when we do all news.
