After I contacted the Bureau of Labor Statistics on Monday April 26th, their representative replied promptly to my query about which news organizations access their lock-ups. The Bureau will not provide a written list but they informed me over the phone that the following news organizations attend the lock-ups:
- Bloomberg
- Market News
- Kyoto News
- Reuters
- Dow Jones
- Associated Press
- Thomson Financial
- Bond Buyer
- Nikkei News
- Jiji Press Agency
- Need to Know News
- Potomac Radio
- MarketWatch News
- CNN
- CNBC
- Fox Business
- Bloomberg TV
In order to report from the lock-ups, news organizations need to be accredited by a Senate or House news gallery and there has to be space available in the lock-ups, which there is not currently.
