Dragon*Con Media Relations continues to vet media applications for Dragon*Con 2013, but we want to remind all reporters that have not yet applied that our Media Access Application deadline is August, 1, 2013.

Once you apply for media access, your application is vetted for appropriateness of your outlet for Dragon*con, the established distribution of your coverage, and the impact your coverage will have for Dragon*Con’s members.  We do not provide media access for comedy outlets, adult oriented or fetish outlets, or outlets that seek to insult or ridicule Dragon*Con Members.

While we would like to be able to provide passes for all media members who apply, increased demand requires us to limit passes for smaller media outlets. In most cases web-based media will qualify for one or two passes, unless you can demonstrate a wider appropriate distribution. Mainstream and traditional outlets normally qualify for more depending on their footprints.

So, if you want to come to Dragon*Con as a reporter, and you qualify, please make sure your applications are in on or before August 1, 2013.
