Building the News Media Agenda on the Environment: A Comparison of Public Relations and Journalistic Sources.
Curtin, Patricia A.; Rhodenbaugh, Eric
Public Relations Review, v27 n2 p179-95 Sum 2001
Analyzes two sources of information supplied to members of the Society of Environmental Journalists (SEJ): public relations materials mailed to SEJ members, and story tip sheets assembled by SEJ staffers. Finds the preponderance of materials promoting an environmental backlash agenda stem from just a few public relations sources; and the public relations materials possessed more overall news utility for journalists.
