Getting your organization's message out to the right audience is critical, whether you're targeting journalists, policy influencers or the general public. Journalists use news releases as sources of breaking news, reaction and commentary on important issues. Government decision-makers read news releases to help them make informed public policy decisions, and the public reads them to better understand and even act upon issues that affect their daily lives.

What’s the difference between a “multicultural market" and a “general/mass
market?"
A multicultural market targets a segmented ethnic group, based on their
diverse cultural structure. Some of the largest multicultural markets in the U.S
are Hispanics, African-Americans, Asian-Americans and Native Americans. The term
“general market,” also referred to as “mainstream” or “mass” market, is a broad
non-targeted demographic and refers to the general mass or population.
