HONG KONG, May 9, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Cision, a leader in consumer and media intelligence solutions, unveiled its 15th annual State of the Media Report, a highly anticipated benchmark study on media industry trends. The report, based on a survey of over 3,000 media professionals worldwide, highlights journalists' keen focus on combating misinformation, their growing reliance on data, and the surprising shifts in the social platforms to which they are active.
Cision's 2024 State of the Media Report
"The report reveals how comms professionals can be the trusted partners that journalists need in today's changing landscape." said Carrie Parker, Chief Marketing Officer at Cision.
The findings underscore the ways in which public relations professionals can reach positive media outcomes faster by providing journalists targeted, well-researched stories that are relevant to their audiences.
Some Key Findings from the Report:
- Nearly three-quarters (72%) of journalists value press releases as their preferred content to receive from PR professionals.
- 42% of journalists reported their biggest challenge of 2024 as maintaining credibility as a trusted news source.
- Despite industry-buzz on AI, fewer than half of the journalists participating in the study use AI regularly.
- Multimedia assets (images, data visualizations, and videos) are being leveraged by the media more than ever, with 87% of journalists using those supplied with pitches and stories.
- Facebook is experiencing a resurgence, with journalists naming it one of the top three platforms for increased activity.
15 Years of Identifying Trends in Media
This year's report marks a milestone for Cision and the media industry.
