- When sending news release kits gifts can be a helpful tool. They can also be very annoying if they are not relevant or useful for the journalist. Choose wisely when deciding to send a gift with a news release, make sure it does not seem you are trying to bribe them with a cheap gimmick.

- Having a conflicting agenda can be a very tricky thing to work around, especially when you have a deadline!Where I found my picture.http://www.tallulahdavid.com/pr/pr-vs-journalists-cant-we-all-just-get-along/

- Journalists often look for the negative side of a story to make it “news.” It can be annoying to PR people when they’re trying to get a positive story written about their organization, and a journalist decides to turn it into a negative story. It’s not good for the organization and it’s not what the PR representative expects.

If you make assumptions you are putting yourself in a position to get into a lot of trouble. (http://www.cleverpr.info/public-relations/how-do-journalists-annoy-public-relations-officers/)

They may speak with policeat the scene of a crime to gain the advantage over other reporters, despite privacy issues. Journalists seek out persons who can get their hands on shady financial dealings or paperwork in an organization, because scandals sell papers.
