Kellye: great post and a good discussion for the PR and client communities to be having. The big losers in all of this is the audience who used to be able to consume information in context because journalists could gather the ancillary information needed to really explain the story. I continued the conversation on this topic on my blog, http://www.theprcounselor-blog.com.

@Julie- I think you nailed it when you said “don’t wreck your relationships.” Done correctly, embargoes can strengthen your key relationships (poorly done embargoes will do just the opposite). Thanks for this perspective.

Handling it effectively really is key. As you said, release to all in the same time period and don't play favorites. Pitch first to those who have agreed to be pitched to AND might have an interest in the story. Don't wreck your relationships by a blind smattering of pitches to any and all-unless they want to be on a general list for all releases. Respect, integrity and truth matter above everything else.
