news management
Controlling media narratives
News management is the strategic control of information released to the public, typically by governments, corporations, or public figures.
The term often carries negative connotations, implying manipulation rather than transparency—timing announcements to minimize scrutiny, burying unfavorable stories, or restricting journalists' access: The administration's news management kept the scandal out of the headlines for weeks.
