As I found editorial success for my agency’s clients, I was able to branch out and pitch radio and television broadcast opportunities. After all, back in the day, working with a newspaper reporter was completely different than coordinating with a radio show producer. In the late 1980s, the media was cut and dry.

In times past, the goal of a publicist was to get their clients featured in media like newspapers, magazines, radio, and television. PR in its traditional form refers to networking with journalists in a bid to get featured in print publications.
