Sam Somers
General Manager, SKMG

5 November, 2024.
Welcome to a week-long shallow dive into all things US election with SKMG’s General Manager, Sam Somers.

Let’s face it: there’s clearly enough US election coverage out there, so what better time to binge it than during the countdown week? We put that challenge to Sam, a person from a completely different country who has a somewhat uncomfortable and inexplicably vested interest in the political rollercoaster that is American democracy.

So, as the candidates rally, the pundits shout and the internet goes goddam nuts, this is one man’s seven-day media adventure across articles, posts, rants and more, examining what it is like to live through an election halfway across the world.

SKMG’s co-founder and partner, Andrew Knowles, has finally let the cat out of the bag and completed his own COMMPRESS: MediaDiet with all the gusto of a man with a point to prove… That he loves niche content almost as much as he loves K-pop. And that he digests a lot of both on a daily basis.

For the sake of the word count, we’ll cut the intro short and let you dive right in. Godspeed.
