# The Media Copilot
> The Media Copilot is an independent media organization covering how artificial intelligence is reshaping journalism, public relations, communications, and media business strategy.

The Media Copilot is founded by veteran tech journalist Pete Pachal, whose previous work includes Mashable, CoinDesk, and NBC Universal. The site publishes news analysis, practical guides, AI tool reviews, professional training, and advisory resources for journalists, PR professionals, communications teams, newsroom leaders, and media executives.

The Media Copilot is written for working media and communications practitioners, not technical AI researchers. Coverage focuses on real editorial workflows, communications workflows, AI adoption, ethics, audience strategy, labor market impact, and generative engine optimization rather than model mechanics.

Primary audience: journalists, editors, PR professionals, communications leaders, media executives, publishers, and content teams.

Primary topics: AI in journalism, AI in PR, AI in communications, newsroom AI workflows, AI search, generative engine optimization, answer engine optimization, AI tool reviews, media business strategy, AI ethics, and the future of media work.

Editorial content follows a published methodology.
