Media relations

 

Before founding Westegg Communications Rebekah was an award winning Senior Journalist and Editor in New Zealand print media.

Since then she has advised on and managed many media relationships, placed hundreds of stories, and provided content for a wide range of public, private, and NGO clients.

West Egg understand the benefits and risks of engaging with news media. We know what makes a story. And we know how to respond if you find yourself facing unwanted media attention.

For example, we have:

  • helped an international documentary team get media interviews and boost the profile of its project

  • helped a government agency increase transparency and public engagement by proactively engaging with news media about its work

  • helped a government agency that was facing negative and confrontational coverage, allowing it to improve its relationships with stakeholders

  • supported clients in the museum sector to win media coverage for major redevelopments and exhibitions

  • supported a major public policy initiative to secure media coverage and boost engagement with its consultation initiatives.
