Radio Media Relations: Radio News Releases

A Radio News Release is a 60-second news story that includes a soundbite from your spokesperson and is pitched and fed to radio stations and networks nationwide. At Lyons PR, we will only produce a Radio News Release (RNR) that we believe will be successful and offer stations useful information. Radio News Releases are available in both English and Spanish, and MUST be timely and newsworthy.

Radio News Releases can be produced quickly and distributed nationwide or according to targeted geographic regions or specific demographics. Our producers create radio-friendly scripts and will work with your spokesperson to elicit a natural-sounding, radio-ready soundbite. Once produced, RNRs are pitched and distributed directly to station and network news directors. Airing information is then verified and compiled to create a comprehensive broadcast usage report.

RNR Audio Samples
  The federal National Healthcare Quality Report confirms that the poor, disabled, uninsured and minorities have more difficulty gaining access to quality healthcare.
  During National Tire Safety Week, drivers are reminded a few small steps can help your tires last longer and save you money at the pump.

The Radio News Release service includes:
  • Script writing in English and/or Spanish
  • Full audio production using professional voice talent
  • Station and network targeting
  • Pitching direct to stations and networks
  • Distribution of the RNR via, email, web and fax
  • Preliminary report immediately following distribution
  • 100% follow-up and verification
  • Final broadcast usage report

To get started with a radio news release, all we need is background information to write the script, and access to your spokesperson for roughly five-to-ten minutes.
