Participate in PR Newswire's Survey on Journalists' Working Status and News Gathering Habits in Asia-Pacific

HONG KONG, March 15, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- PR Newswire has rolled out an online survey, titled "2016 Journalists' Working Status and News Gathering Habits in Asia-Pacific", to explore how the new era of digital communication has impacted the professional lives of journalists. The short survey welcomes input from the media community in six major markets - Australia, Hong Kong, Indonesia, Malaysia, Singapore, and Taiwan, and is open for participation until May 16, 2016. Each qualified participant will receive a coffee voucher as a token of appreciation and will be entered into a prize draw to win a 16GB iPad Air.

Part of PR Newswire's long-term commitment is to help companies further understand the changing needs of the media and how they can adapt their content strategy accordingly to raise the chances of being published. Journalists' feedback will serve as a guide for marketers and PR professionals to produce content in line with their editorial needs.  

Key questions covered in the survey include:

  • The main channels journalists most frequently use to keep up with the latest news and information;
  • Their most trusted sources when writing a news report or verifying a fact;
  • Their preferred multimedia elements for a news story;
  • The main factors that will help facilitate more open communications with them.

"We constantly strive to understand the evolving needs and challenges of journalists, and we hope the results gathered will help us better serve the media community," said Yujie Chen, Senior Vice President of Asia-Pacific at PR Newswire. "The specialized services PR Newswire offers help bridge the gap between the media and PR and marketing communities. ProfNet, for example, is a free online service connecting journalists with quality sources and industry experts for their news stories."
