Is the press release dead, or just living on in a different form? In this episode of The Little Questions, hosts Jenny Scott and James Kirkup, both Partners at Apella Advisors, compare journalist habits and modern comms strategy. They discuss how AI, owned channels, and trusted relationships are reshaping story traction. Jenny and James ask if press releases still have a meaningful role in modern communications. They discuss why mass distribution rarely works, and why a press release is more effective when it supports a relevant story and an established journalist relationship. The conversation explores how press releases can function as briefing notes, sources of factual information and become part of a company's searchable public record in the age of AI. The press release itself is only one element of a wider communications strategy. They also consider the growing importance of owned channels, CEO communications, blogs, podcasts and direct audience engagement. They give examples from Octopus Energy, Relx, and Games Workshop to help illustrate different approaches to corporate storytelling and media relations. The episode provides practical advice for comms teams: focus on the corporate narrative first, share concrete evidence rather than speculation, use clear facts and bullet points, and treat the press release as one tool within a broader communications toolbox. This podcast is hosted by James Kirkup and Jenny Scott.   James has over 20 years in high-profile Westminster roles including Political Editor of the Daily Telegraph and Director of the Social Market Foundation. Extensive experience of thought leadership and advocacy work, with a particular focus on the relationship between business, politics and public policy.

John Campbell speaks to RNZ Political Editor Jo Moir about the state of the National party caucus and the repercussions for Chris Penk.

National MP Chris Penk's been dumped from Cabinet and his ministerial portfolios, after instigating today's failed coup. Prime Minister Chris Luxon managed to fight off the challenge for his leadership - at a three-hour caucus meeting in Wellington today. He says Penk's role is now untenable. NZ Herald political editor Thomas Coughlan says Penk was likely running the numbers - for Erica Stanford or Chris Bishop to contest the leadership. "I think there was a classic stalking horse or sometimes they're called kamikazes - they launched the attacks and destabilised...so that it triggered the confidence vote." Paul Goldsmith will pick up the Defence, Veterans, Space, GCSB, and NZSIS portfolios. Simon Watts will become Minister for Building and Construction.

Jo Moir joins John Campbell ahead of this morning's special caucus meeting where Prime Minister Christopher Luxon's leadership is on the agenda.

Jo Moir discusses an extraordinary 24 hours in politics, ahead of Wednesday's emergency meeting of the National caucus.

There's silence from some National MPs as the Prime Minister faces a potential leadership showdown. Chris Luxon's called an urgent Caucus meeting in Wellington tomorrow morning, after rumours emerged he doesn't have his party's full support. He's touched down in Wellington, batting off questions and saying he'll talk to media tomorrow. NZ Herald political editor Thomas Coughlan says MPs like Simeon Brown - who've previously stood behind Luxon - aren't returning texts. "Usually, when there's a bit of speculation it's very easy, it takes two seconds to say - yes, I back the Prime Minister, and they do that all the time."
