Laura Stegman, President, LAURA SEGAL STEGMAN PUBLIC RELATIONS, LLC. Welcome to this information tool for PR folks in Southern California (of which I am one) featuring updates about changes in contacts at (mainly) LA-area media outlets. It's intended not as a media directory but instead as a "who's gone where now" resource. I'll post news as I get it in my own research, and am happy to post tips you'd like to pass on.
