Q. Which of the function of Public Relations is not included? (December 2022, UGC NET)

1. Press Release

2. Press Tour

3. News Reporting

4. Press Contact

Correct Ans: (3)

Explanation: Public Relations (PR) activities include press releases, press tours, and maintaining press contacts to build and manage an organization’s reputation. However, news reporting is a function of journalism, not PR. PR professionals work to craft and disseminate the organization’s messages, while journalists independently gather, report, and analyze news. This distinction is important as PR focuses on promoting a positive image and managing communications, whereas journalism aims to inform the public with unbiased and factual reporting.
