Public Relations Writing by Rotary Clubs
• The ability to write easily, logically, and succinctly is vital in public relations.
• The object of most PR writing is to grab the reader’s attention.
• Most press releases and other written communications for the media use an inverted-pyramid style.
• The headline and the first sentence are the two most important parts of a press release.
