    Crisis public relations is more than just the practice of damage control.

  • How Do You Know Which Medium Is Right For Your Message?  By : Marsha Friedman-8975
    Five hundred press releases is the average number delivered to the New York Times every day. When you get to major metropolitan daily newspapers, the number drops to about 250, and 100 for community weeklies. Most local TV stations are in the 200 range and radio is around 100. Per day.

  • Print Circulations Tank As Online Media Takes Over: The Value of Web-Based Press Shines As Newspaper Readership Declines  By : Marsha Friedman-8975
    It used to be that if you got an online placement for a client, they would laugh it off as if the coverage was inconsequential. Today, it's very different. Recently, we had a client covered on The Huffington Post, which made the client incredibly happy. Soon after, she nearly went into orbit when she was asked to become a regular blogger for the news site. So, it's not just about the numbers. While 74 million is a good number of unique visitors, the news-based Web sites are growing in influence and prestige, as well. At the end of the day, print and Web combined means more eyeballs for your story.
