media briefing
Official news announcement
A media briefing is a meeting where officials or representatives provide information to journalists, typically about a specific event, policy, or development.
Unlike a full press conference, a briefing is often shorter and more focused, sometimes restricting questions or going on background: The Pentagon holds daily media briefings.
Also called a press briefing.
