PR Week has come together with Editorial Intelligence, the highly regarded media data and analysis firm that specialises in the world of print and online comment - ‘The Commentariat’.
Every day e.i’s team of dedicated journalists produces summaries of every major UK commentator and distribute these to clients under nine key topics which match government departments. In addition, it provides a daily digest of commentary and opinion, condensing all editorial into a single quick-read by email.
These allow e.i’s clients to gauge daily the way the world of comment is changing, helping communications professionals better understand the way issues are evolving and predict more closely how opinion is being shaped.
This wealth of data stored by e.i, including extensive profiles of hundreds of key commentators, allows it to provide clients with more detailed reports of how particularly issues are playing out amongst the commentariat, and to track that over time.
This is a vital service to those aspiring to manage complex issues in the media.
Now e.i and PR Week have come together to provide two special offers to PR Week readers: one for the individual communications professional, and one more suited to in-house or agency teams.
This allows individuals to join a unique club at special rates that allows members to receive:
- e.i’s Daily Comment Digest: providing a vital e-snapshot of the day’s commentary. Click here to view our archive.
- e.i’s Daily Summaries: giving a more in-depth understanding of opinion in specific subject areas. Click here to view a sample.
- Invitations to e.i’s exclusive networking events: Editorial Intelligence holds a wide range of events throughout the year which are always by-invitation only and which feature leading newspaper columnists and policymakers. Comment Club Membership entitles you to receive invitations to six of these events a year - which are podcast.
The e.i/PR Week comment Club Membership is offered to PR Week readers at the specially discounted rate of £400 plus VAT per person per annum.
Or contact us to request a free trial.
A thorough understanding of what is being said by the commentariat on a particular issue is vital for communications professionals – whether they are about to pitch for a new bit of business, or handling an existing issue that is developing in new ways. While analysing pure news coverage can be done relatively easily and quickly by looking at headlines, with commentary it can be much more time-consuming: arguments are not rehearsed over one sentence or conclusions reached in a headline: thousands and thousands of words will need to be read to understand the development of opinion.
Fortunately, e.i has already done that reading for you and our analysts can provide a quick snapshot of opinion on any issue at any time, be it climate change or obesity, short-selling or political perceptions.
The e.i/PR Week Opinion Snapshot Service is unique to readers of PR week at a cost of £2,500 plus VAT per Snapshot which covers six months’ of coverage and a list of 5-10 commentators plus profiles – all within 3 working days of commission.
