Talking with the media is a core function of public relations departments. Public relations professionals
field questions from reporters, arrange for interviews with key individuals in the organization and write
press releases to make the media aware of company events or achievements.
Social Media
One emerging function of public relations is to maximize an organization’s positive use of social media to
build its image.

Sometimes a company or organization is struck by a disastrous event that ruins its public image. This
might be an oil company that has to deal with a high profile spill, or a food company that has a
contamination event. Public relations professionals decide how the organization will repair the damage to
its image, communicate how it is dealing with the problem and regain control of its message.
