It will be the first time in history, according to organizers, that content creators will be able to cover the convention alongside traditional media outlets.
— The Democratic National Convention Committee announced Friday that it will allow social media content creators to apply for credentials to cover the 2024 convention in Chicago.
“We are leveling the playing field between content creators and traditional media and ensuring that more Americans than ever before are able to experience and engage with this critical part of our Democratic process,” said Cayana Mackey-Nance, Democratic National Convention Committee director of digital strategy.
“We are meeting Americans where they are and making sure they know what’s on the line in November, no matter how or where they see their content,” said Matt Hill, the DNCC’s senior director of communications.
