"Setting up a functioning media operation is essential for any Green candidate. Using the media right will give your campaign a strong public presence. For a lot of the public, a candidate doesn't really exist until they see the candidate's name in the newspaper or on TV, or on Facebook and Twitter."
Scott McLarty serves as media coordinator and co-chair, along with Starlene Rankin, of the Green Party's Media Committee. He also handles media work for the DC Statehood Green Party. Starlene is also a co-chair of the Green Party and co-chair of the Lavender Green Caucus.
