A press release is a document that is sent to the media highlighting a new story or research that could make a good news article. The press release will contain the main highlights and findings of the journal article. Usually, a release will be around 500-600 words long, including a quote from the author and a link to the journal article. The press should grab a journalist’s attention and provide succinct facts to shape a story. The aim of the press release is to gain coverage for the journal and the author of the article.
A journal paper will be press released if it contains content that is news worthy and will be of interest to a large readership/listenership. The content of the paper should be easy to communicate to journalists.
The journal article must contain one or more of the following:
New research in the field of study
Research that sheds a new perspective or alternate perspective on research that received news coverage in the past
Research that relates to current news stories and interest
Publication coincides with an anniversary or date of interest
Research in the public interest, e. g. elderly care abuse or pregnancy screening
