@Asker It is neither fair nor polite to answerers to simply post a link as your explanation and expect the answerers to look it up for themselves. You should post the crucial information in that link too. Personally, I would not have answered because of that.

In this case, your header term was incomplete, because you had incorrectly parsed the sentence. As you posted it, Jonathan's first answer was correct, but wrong as an explanation of the term in your link, as he subsequently discovered.

"go-to media expert" is the term you're looking for

English term (edited): go-to media expert

person to go to when expert advice is needed regarding media

you have parsed it wrong as "media" is an adjective here.

So it's "go-to media expert"
"10 Ways To Become A Go-To Media Expert In Your Field"

"Go-to" simply has a literal meaning...you go to that person or that thing or place as your first selection or choice

so here it means

in the field of media you can become the expert people will go to when they want advice

Many thanks:-)
agree jccantrell : This is right, it is the 'go-to expert' in media matters. The guy who knows the most and who you would ask when there is a task or problem in this area.

Many thanks...yes, I tried to explain in simplest way as it will be translated from English
agree Björn Vrooman : This is EN-EN: The asker sought an explanation beyond replacing one term with another (so that he needs an explanation of the term put in its place). The only go-to answer (couldn't resist that pun).

You should have made more efforts in finding the meaning yourself. "Go-to" is an often used expression and is listed in many dictionaries. Here are some:
