Hottest Media Types Contest

July 25, 2007

FishbowlDC's annual "Hottest Media Types" contest is underway. The inside-the-Beltway blog about journalism and politics is asking readers to cast their votes for the most sizzling on- and off-air reporters and PR practitioners.

Some contestants are utilizing social-networking site Facebook to get out the vote while others have written their own self-aggrandizing press releases and campaign blogs.

In a mere 24 hours, more than 63,000 votes had been cast (and cheating charges are also mounting). Voter fraud! Voter fraud!

Cast your own votes here:
Hottest Media Types, Male, On Air
Hottest Media Types, Female, On Air
Hottest Media Types, Male, Off Air
Hottest Media Types, Female, Off Air
Hottest Media Types, PR, Male
Hottest Media Types, PR, Female

There are two folks from our company in the running -- Government Executive's Greg Grant and The Hotline's Amy Dudley -- as well as Congress Daily alum Greta Wodele. And a member of the Tech Daily staff almost won last year's contest (and was ineligible this time around). Go team!

For more hotness, check out The Hill newspaper's annual "50 Most Beautiful People on Capitol Hill."
