Guidance for Reporters
– Regularly check websites that often contain news releases
of interest.
– Sign up for media lists of institutions often issuing news
releases of interest.
– Double-check information from news releases.
– Don’t base all stories on news releases. Also show initiative
in coming up with story ideas. (Not everything important
has a release.)

broader context.

read the journal article.
