公共關(guān)系之 舉行新聞發(fā)布會(huì)　Holding a Press Conference

如果公司有熱門(mén)消息（hot piece of news）要傳播給公眾，新聞發(fā)布會(huì)無(wú)疑是首選方式之一。通過(guò)新聞發(fā)布會(huì)，你要傳達(dá)的信息將在最短時(shí)間里（in one shot）到達(dá)媒體，公之于眾。

要有新聞價(jià)值（newsworthy）

缺乏新聞價(jià)值（no news value）的招待會(huì)無(wú)法吸引主流媒體參與（lackluster attendance）。如果你擔(dān)心出席率（turnout），可以考慮請(qǐng)一些重量級(jí)人物或貴賓（VIPs）來(lái)捧場(chǎng)，因?yàn)樾侣劽襟w總是愿意追逐著名人物。

具體細(xì)節(jié)將在明早的新聞發(fā)布會(huì)上宣布。

考慮到媒體資源

要確認(rèn)你需要什么級(jí)別的新聞媒體，當(dāng)?shù)氐男侣剤?bào)紙？網(wǎng)站？還是電視臺(tái)和電臺(tái)？另外，行業(yè)內(nèi)的刊物也不能忽視。

⊙I want the newspapers, radio, and television all to be there.我希望報(bào)紙、電臺(tái)和電視臺(tái)都參加。

通知發(fā)布會(huì)時(shí)間

確認(rèn)媒體對(duì)象（media target）后，就要邀請(qǐng)各方媒體。邀請(qǐng)函應(yīng)當(dāng)包含準(zhǔn)確的日期、時(shí)間、地點(diǎn)。信息的任何變動(dòng)都將造成混淆（cause confusion）和不必要的麻煩，因?yàn)橛浾叽蠖喾浅Ｃβ?，沒(méi)有時(shí)間查看更新后的信息（check for updates）。

⊙The press conference is next week.新聞發(fā)布會(huì)定在下周。

新聞發(fā)布會(huì)將在5月7日下午2點(diǎn)在中央大酒店舉行。

安排若干發(fā)言人

在新聞發(fā)布會(huì)上安排幾個(gè)人講話（multiple speakers）會(huì)很有幫助，因?yàn)橛浾邆兛偸窍Ｍ谧逯卸嗵釒孜挥蟹至康娜?。三個(gè)人通常非常理想（ideal），但可以根據(jù)實(shí)際情況調(diào)整。

⊙We're set up to hold the press conference on the front lawn, but if the weather takes a turn for the worse, we have an alternate location in the atrium.

我們將在前面的草坪上舉行記者招待會(huì)。如果天氣變壞，備選地點(diǎn)是中庭。

⊙Everything is taken care of, even down to the nitty gritty details.We should have this press conference go off without a hitch.

一切都要準(zhǔn)備齊全，具體細(xì)節(jié)也應(yīng)考慮周到。我們一定要讓新聞發(fā)布會(huì)順利召開(kāi)。

總結(jié)
