press coverage

Journalist reporting activity

Press coverage is attention from news media—the reporting, articles, and broadcasts about a person, event, or issue.

Coverage suggests the extent to which something is covered: The scandal received wall-to-wall press coverage.

Good press coverage helps; bad press coverage hurts.

Organizations hire publicists to generate favorable press coverage and manage unfavorable coverage.
