Public relations aims to establish and maintain goodwill between an organization and its publics through planned communication. There are four historical models of PR: (1) press agentry focused on securing media coverage through any means; (2) public information provided accurate information to the public; (3) two-way asymmetrical communication persuades audiences using social science; and (4) two-way symmetrical communication uses research to understand audiences and position the organization to please them through mediation. PR considers internal publics like employees and external publics like customers, and its roles include fact-finding, planning, implementation, evaluation, advising, and producing materials to maintain relationships.

The Impact of Social Media on Public RelationsMorgan Drdak
As organizations embrace social media as a marketing tool, they must understand that it is also a communication forum that will impact their public relations. This presentation is part of a lesson plan designed for a Mass Communications course addressing theories and practice of organization-stakeholder communication.
Public relations (PR) manages the release and spread of publicity about a firm or individual to the public to influence their opinions, attitudes or behaviours.
PR aims to build and maintain relationships with stakeholders and those who influence the target audience, to enhance the public reputation.
Public relations professionals are storytellers and image shapers who create a positive narrative for their clients by working closely with journalists and other media. This allows them to manage and generate positive publicity for their clients to enhance their reputations. Public relations are controlled internally as a strategy, but publicity is controlled and distributed externally.
PR has been a profession since the dawn of the 20th century, but the roots of the idea of widely influencing public opinion and action can be found and during the movement to abolish slavery in England 100 years before that.
Because of these beginnings, one of the underlying assumptions of PR is that it should be socially responsible and go beyond organisational goals to play a constructive role in society.
Depending on the situation, PR will have a particular tone – whether it is showing empathy and understanding, storytelling and creativity, or more persuasive messaging. Messages are tailored to the relevant target audience/s.
PR applies to all organisations from small businesses to corporations to governments or activists. They could be from the private, public or third sector. The third sector is an umbrella term for voluntary and community organisations such as social enterprises.

bureaus,which were the predecessors of the modern PR

client, and truth is not a absolute requirement
• This type of PR is most common in show
business,celebrity PR where individuals are promoted
through media coverage.

organisation concern themselves most with getting
attention in the media for their clients.

where accuracy is important and essential.

serve as mediators between clients and the public

people or group of people who are directly or indirectly
concerned with the organisation, use its services/products
or benefit from it in one form or another and/or affected by
