An actual press release received this week. as you can see it’s HARD HITTING IMPORTANT NEWS:
BALTIMORE, Jan. 28, 2013 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Minutes before today’s flight to New Orleans, Baltimore Quarterback Joe Flacco was seen with his favorite treat: Haribo Gold-Bears. The original gummi bears are Flacco’s go-to choice while prepping for the big game. Known for his sweet tooth, Flacco’s favorite flavor is Pineapple.
Seriously? This is the most mundane minutia imaginable. And it’s product placement sent through an alleged news service. Every weekday, myself and fellow journalists receive a bunch of story pitches from publicity firms. Most of them are boring and possess zero news value. Some of these PR flaks get really annoying in that they will email 3-4 times after you’ve ignored them. During Super Bowl week, you’ll get more than a week’s worth in a day.
Hi Paul,
2.1 million people streamed the Superbowl last year and that number is expected to rise significantly for this weekend...
