PR Media Training. How to write a media policy.
An invaluable guide for any organization that deals with the media in any way.
Written by Mark Aiston.
I am currently employed as Network Ten’s sports host for the stations 5 PM News service. I’m also co-host on the highly rating radio breakfast show on Mix102.3. I began my media career in Adelaide in 1981 as a race broadcaster I then joined ABC television in 1984.
I have worked in MEDIA NEWSROOMS since 1981.
Why is this important? It’s important because whilst working in those media newsrooms, I have become very aware of the GOOD things that organizations do when dealing with the media, and the BAD things they do as well.
It’s my view that most of the organizations that dealt with the media in a professional and confident manner probably had a media policy of some kind in place, but the organizations that handled the media poorly probable didn’t.
Every organization should have a plan in place for dealing with the media.
