This 3-sentence summary provides an overview of the key points made in the presentation about new media and traditional PR: The presentation compared new media platforms like websites, blogs, videos, and social networks to traditional PR and explored how PR is shifting from one-way proclamations to two-way conversations through new media that allow for feedback and relationship building with multiple publics. While new media presents exciting opportunities to transform communications, the core of PR remains building mutually beneficial relationships with all audiences through listening, responding, and sharing information rather than just publicity or marketing.
