For brands and causes, the essential value of public relations is increasingly coming from its ability to master the changing forms of news as traditional and social media intertwine. PR firms have a massive opportunity to go way beyond the old practice of pitching the news to become masters of newscrafting for our clients—a mix of putting out routine news in more compelling ways, creating news opportunities and coattailing relevant breaking news.
Looking forward: Newscrafting the future
Real-time newscrafting We’re all making news as we’re consuming it, and this leads to an adrenaline-rushed world where all news seems to be breaking—even if it’s hard for everything to be happening simultaneously, in a frenzy, with epic implications for the masses.
We’ve also all become narrowcasters, sharing the news we care about with the people we touch: our fans, friends and followers. We call this mycasting.
The multiplicity of “my” viewpoints being heard on new channels is impressive.
