Rasky Baerlein’s October 2016 survey of 202 Washington lawyers,
lobbyists, executives, think tank leaders, and academics indicates that
Washington Insiders are realizing the benefits of such intensive PR work.
P R I N T H E U S A
A STUDY REVEALED THE
FEDERAL GOVERNMENT
EMPLOYED OVER 3,000
PUBLIC AFFAIRS OFFICERS
SPREAD ACROSS OVER 200
FEDERAL AGENCIES AND
OFFICES IN 2014. 
BASED ON THESE DATA, THE
U.S. GOVERNMENT HAS
ESSENTIALLY BEEN THE
WORLD’S SECOND LARGEST
PUBLIC RELATIONS FIRM
FOR SOME TIME NOW.

As we are learning from the
recent presidential election, the
digital realm is fertile ground for
generating new pathways of
connection between the public
and the government or its
representatives.
EagleAi, an artificial intelligence
program developed for British
news media, predicted Trump’s
surprise victory and attributed
his win to his frequent mass
communication over Twitter. 
It therefore comes as no surprise
that over 40 percent of
Washington Insiders indicate that
they will reallocate their public
affairs spending away from
traditional, non-digital realms to
fund digital advocacy in 2017.

“THERE IS AN INCREASED DEMAND FOR
INTEGRATED PUBLIC AFFAIRS PROGRAMS THAT
INCORPORATE TRADITIONAL GOVERNMENT
RELATIONS ALONG WITH PUBLIC RELATIONS,
GRASSROOTS AND DIGITAL COMPONENTS...,
THESE FINDINGS ARE AN IMPORTANT
BAROMETER AS WASHINGTON READIES ITSELF
FOR POST-ELECTION ACTIVITY AND 2017.”

Beyond next year, digital technology, social media, and grassroots
efforts are expected to continue to grow for the next half-decade as
policy influencers will work harder to sway public opinion by reaching
out to audiences outside of lawmakers and government officials
