LISTING CRITERIA
All news media, regardless of editorial orientation are eligible for listing as long as they accept editorial submission from outside sources. Media generally originate within the state or direct a majority of their efforts to audiences within Arizona.
Our policy is to gather information from the original source - publishers, editors, station managers or their representatives. News media are not charged for being listed in this reference. Statistics provided to the directory are not always independently verified. We reserve the right to present an independent, subjective evaluation of each medium considered for the FINDERBINDER® MEDIA DIRECTORY, for Arizona and its monthly newsletters.
