MEDIA TIPS
PUBLIC SERVICE ANNOUNCEMENTS (PSAs): Most radio and TV stations accept PSAs from non-profits. The trick is to know how each radio station and TV channel prefer to receive the information. Only non-profit, civic and voluntary organizations are eligible to use PSAs.
About once a year, survey the radio or TV stations you plan to use. Find out answers to: • Has the PSA Director changed? The News Director? • For radio, ask if they use taped (recorded) PSAs or if the on-air talent reads the announcements live. For TV, a final piece made (most likely on your end) will need to be submitted. Find out length and what format. • Ask how far in advance PSAs should be submitted and what lengths are accepted. • For radio, scripts should be concise, double spaced and typed with a larger font. Give them options of a :10-, :20-, or :30-second length. Let them know the start and end dates of your PSA.
STORY PITCH: If you think you have a good story, contact the media. Decide if it is suited for TV (is there a good visual/moving component?), radio, print or all three.
Contact a person you know in the media and ask their opinion. If they agree it’s a good story, contact the reporter you want to work on the story. Be brief. Have something short in the who, what, when, where and why format written out that you can send to them.
Provide other information such as people they can interview/photograph, etc.

NEWS RELEASES: News releases come in many different formats, but a few standards do exist: it must be newsworthy, it must have certain information included, and it must get to the right person at the right time.
If you have not established a relationship with the media you are sending your release to, do not assume how they like to receive the release. Call and find out if they prefer to receive the release by email, fax or mail and best person to send it to.
If sending by email, it’s best to include the text in the body of the email, not as an attachment.
Some tips for news releases that still ring true: • What it is: News Release • Heading: Name and address of organization as well as a contact name and number(s)/email if the reporter needs more information. • When it is available for release. Most releases say “For Immediate Release.” This is best. Some news, however, may be embargoed and should state this at the top: “Embargoed until: date and/or time” or “For Release: date and/or time.” Embargoed releases are being used less and less and some outlets will no longer honor the embargo request. • Date and location should be at the beginning of the release. • Since the inception of email, rules are bending, but, generally speaking releases should be typed double-spaced. • Include ###, –30–, or –end– at the end of your release so the editor/reporter knows it is the end. • Even though you’re most likely emailing your release, as a rule of thumb, still try to keep your release to one printed page using 1.5 or double spacing. Less is more. • The who, what, when, where and why of the release should be concise and in the first paragraph. The remaining paragraph(s) should then expand on the initial information. • The information you provide generally should be straightforward. Let the media come up with the adjectives and adverbs. You can, however, come up with a catchy headline to grab hold of the media’s eye. • Boilerplate: a standardized short, one-paragraph description of your organization that provides organization information (including website and phone number) and may be used at the end of each release (before the ###). • As you’re most likely emailing your release, possibly posting on your website, be sure and use hyperlinks that link to your website or to the information you’re sending in your release.

WORKING WITH THE MEDIA: You should work on having a positive relationship with reporters and editors. While no hard-and-fast rules apply, below are suggestions to help:
• Be available. It is your responsibility to be available 24 hours a day. Key contacts should have your work, home, cell and email information. • Be truthful. Give as much accurate and true information as you can. • Provide information requested. If a reporter asks you for information, and you don’t have it, find it and get back to him/her with it in a timely manner. • Be accurate. The facts and figures you supply must be clear and dependable. • Answer questions. Only answer three ways: o “Here it is.” o “I don’t know, but let me find out and get back with you.” o “Right now I’m not able to share that with you because ...” o “No comment” is never acceptable as an answer • Off the record. Do not go off the record when speaking to the media. Off the record does not exist. • Protect exclusives. • Protect sources. Just as a reporter protects their sources, protect yours. • Give all the news. Be transparent. Give the good with the bad. • Help photographers. Let the photographers know if you think there’s a good photo-op. • Balance your treatment of the media. Remember competing media deserve equal opportunity to receive information. • Explain. Have background briefings or materials for reporters to help them understand what your organization does. • Correct errors politely. Minor errors such as misspellings or inaccurate age can be ignored. Major factual errors that skew the accuracy of the entire story should be corrected. Politely let the reporter know and ask for a correction. If that does not work, contact his or her editor. • Remember deadlines. Find out from a reporter their deadlines. Get them the information they need in time for them to write the story. • Say thank you. Praise good work. Thank yous go a long way in maintaining a good relationship.
IS PR CHANGING? The landscape of media is changing, and has been for several years now with instant news, blogs, social media, online access and more. For example, many online articles say the press/news release is dead and that social media news releases are the replacement. Social media news releases do provide benefits for some organizations, but not for all.
Has a PR person’s role changed? Yes and no. Fundamentally PR is the same. PR people still need to get information to the public about their organization. Doing so through traditional media relations is now just one avenue. New tools exist (such as the social media news release) – and they are just that – tools. You need to decide which of these tools are best for your organization.
Remember, PR does not stand for press release – it stands for public relations, with the emphasis on “public” or people more than ever.
