BUS 300 Public Relations
Dr. Tenielle Buchanan
October 30, 2022BUS300 PR Plan Part 1 Outline
Your paper should have a section with the bolded headers
below. Ensure you have a section that discusses each of these:
Name of organization
The United States-based publication Rolling Stone magazine is
a news magazine that covers articles on current events relating
to music, contemporary culture, and politics. Jann Wenner and
Ralph J. Gleason laid the groundwork for the establishment of
the organization in 1967 in the city of San Francisco,
California. The first thing that brought the organization to
public attention was its publication of news regarding rock
music and politics. The company's objective and purpose are to
produce great material that sheds light on the culture of
modern time and to tell extraordinary tales.
However, the primary focus of the corporation is on publishing
quality news for its clients (Rolling Stone, 2018). The purpose
is to make it easy for people to receive their news coverage in
any format they like, be it print, video, social media, internet,
or events. This includes providing in-depth interview sessions,
album reviews, political analysis, and award-winning reporting.
As per Dinsdale (2019), Rolling Stone is a well-known
magazine that has over 670,000 paid memberships and has a
target readership of young adults who are getting closer to their
Middle Ages. The occurrence that led to the organization
receiving unfavorable publicity is the topic of discussion in this
paper.
Negative Publicity

The event that caused Rolling Stone Magazine to receive
negative publicity and become embroiled in a scandal occurred
when the publication was served with a defamation lawsuit in
2016. This came about because one of the magazine's authors
had written an article in 2014 about a brutal rape that took place
at the University of Virginia that the magazine later published,
despite the fact that it was proven to be inaccurate (Shapiro,
2016). Nicole Eramo, a former assistant dean at the University
of Virginia, filed a lawsuit against Rolling Stone magazine for
publishing an article that she claimed defamed her by portraying
her as uninterested to the plight of sexual assault survivors.
Eramo argued in court that the article misrepresented her. The
reporter was judged to be liable for labeling the former dean by
publishing false material, which caused the organization to
spend large costs in the resolution in the form of compensation
to the plaintiff. The jury came to this conclusion after hearing
testimony from all sides of the case.
The audience would lose trust in the news the magazine
provided as they began to have doubts about the veracity of the
material they disclosed to the public, which would result in bad
publicity for the magazine. This incident tarnished the
institution, which would have an impact on their ability to
continue publishing news since their media reports created
skepticism. Additionally, no one wished to be affiliated with the
institution due to the bad reputation it had developed after
having lost the defamation lawsuit that was filed against it. The
public had many questions regarding the veracity of the news
pieces that the publication had published as a result of their
claim that gang rape was untrue. It became challenging to
believe that the magazine was a reliable source of accurate
news.
Specific Goals
One of the goals that I would create for the campaign to help
combat the negative publicity from the Rolling Stone scandal is
to focus on improving safety and respect in media coverage.

This goal should include measures to ensure that reporters
adhere to responsible journalistic practices and to create a more
ethical culture within the magazine’s staff. This could be
achieved through training for reporters and editorial staff on
ethical standards, as well as education about the importance of
fact-checking and double-checking sources. Furthermore, I
would strive to create a system of accountability for reporters
and editors within the organization, by creating an ombudsman
position and instituting stronger consequences for unethical
behavior.
The second goal I would develop for this campaign is to foster
better relationships with communities in order to enhance the
trustworthiness and transparency of Rolling Stone magazine.
This would involve developing communication strategies and
channels to work with local communities, student groups, and
other organizations in order to ensure that the magazine is
aware of the impact of its reporting and keeps their grievances
and concerns in mind when crafting stories. This could also
involve creating improved outreach methods, like online forums
and surveys, to better understand the needs and perspectives of
readers.
The third goal I would develop for this campaign is to
emphasize the good works of Rolling Stone magazine and its
staff. This goal should include highlighting the positive impact
that the magazine has had on different communities and
promoting the efforts of its journalists. Through this goal, I
would strive to provide a more balanced portrait of the
magazine and its staff and to promote the good work that it
does.Steps
In order to achieve my goals for this campaign, I will take
a number of steps. First, in order to improve safety and respect
in media coverage, I will create an ethics manual that outlines
the ethical standards for reporters and editors within the
organization, including guidelines on fact-checking, obtaining
permission from sources, and other related issues. I will also
institute stronger consequences for unethical behavior, such as

suspension or termination, and create an ombudsman position to
provide an additional layer of accountability. Second, in order
to foster better relationships with communities, I will create
communication strategies and channels to work with local
communities, student groups, and other organizations. This
could include developing online forums and surveys to gain a
deeper understanding of their needs and perspectives, as well as
hosting events to demonstrate an ongoing commitment to
creating quality journalism and open dialogue. Third, in order to
emphasize the good works of Rolling Stone magazine and its
staff, I will create content that showcases their positive impact
on different communities. This could include creating videos
and articles that highlight the magazine’s accomplishments and
creating a presence on social media platforms to engage with
the general public and further the goal of improving their
reputation.
Six Ethical Values
A public relations professional's conduct during a crisis should
be guided by the six guiding ethical principles of “honesty,
fairness, advocacy, independence, loyalty, and expertise.” For a
public relations practitioner to be trustworthy, they must treat
their clients and the public with the utmost respect and always
tell the truth. In order to protect the organization's reputation, I
must be honest in the information I provide to the public.
Fairness entails treating others fairly and taking into account
their viewpoints. That means I have to respect the citizenry's
right to express their opinions and my clients' freedom to voice
their opinions, even if I disagree with them, as I work to change
the public's impression of the magazine.
When advocating on behalf of a client, a PR professional must
operate in the public interest by zealously defending that
client's position (“The Arthur W. Page Center,” n.d). In this
scenario, the correct thing to do would be to offer Rolling Stone
a voice in the public discourse about what transpired and to
persuade the public to give the magazine another chance to fix

its mistakes, just as they should have done for their client. To
be really independent, a lawyer must be able to offer their
clients impartial advice. To be loyal means to be devoted to the
people we speak for while also fulfilling our obligation to the
general public. Expertise as a core principle necessitates those
public relations practitioners seek out and responsibly apply
specialized skills and knowledge to serve the requirements of
their clients as well as the public interest.
The internal shareholders who will be impacted by my actions
are the investors, whose investment results in the magazine will
depend on how the public reacts to the situation. If the
campaign succeeds in convincing the audience to trust the
magazine, the publication will be able to re-establish its
stability. The staff will also be impacted, as they run the risk of
losing their employment and income if the public reacts poorly
and the magazine's performance declines. The general public is
one of the external shareholders who will be influenced by the
decisions I make; due to the effect the result will have on their
confidence in the magazine to offer trustworthy news.
Evaluation Plan
In order to evaluate the success of the campaign, I will create an
evaluation plan that will measure both quantitative and
qualitative outcomes. To measure the quantitative outcomes, I
will track the number of ethical journalism training sessions and
workshops completed, the number of new partnerships and
collaborations established, and the number of positive media
stories generated about Rolling Stone magazine. Additionally, I
will track the number of people who have responded positively
to the campaign, both through direct feedback or on social
media platforms.
To measure the qualitative outcomes, I will use surveys and
interviews to assess the impact of the campaign. Surveys will be
sent to individuals involved in the campaign, as well as
members of the general public and Rolling Stone’s readership,
to get a measure of how successful the campaign was in

changing public perception and rebuilding trust and credibility
in the magazine. I will also conduct interviews with community
leaders, academics, and media professionals to get a better
sense of what impact the campaign has had. This data will then
be used to assess the overall success of the campaign and
determine whether or not it achieved its goals.Conclusion
The defamation litigation had a huge influence on the
image of Rolling Stone magazine, causing severe damage to the
firm's operation. Internal and external shareholders were
harmed by the unfavorable public opinion emanating from the
case. Therefore, it became imperative for the organization to
hire a public relations expert to assist in restoring its
credibility. Explaining what occurred to the public, accepting
responsibility for what occurred, and reassuring the public that
it will not occur again is one approach for the institution to
convince the public that it deserves a chance to demonstrate that
it has more favorable than negative attributes. It is vital to keep
monitoring the effect of the efforts that have been made in order
to determine what additional steps might be taken to attain the
intended outcome. If the procedures outlined above are
successfully performed, it is likely that Rolling Stone magazine
will be able to recover from the damage done to its reputation.
