pressaddress

Pressaddress is a term used in journalism and public relations to refer to the designated contact point through which a organization disseminates press material and handles media inquiries. The press address may be a postal address, a dedicated press email, a phone line, or a press contact page on a corporate website. In practice, the press address serves as the primary liaison between journalists and the organization, ensuring that requests for information, interviews, or clarification are directed efficiently.

Typical components include a named contact or team (public relations or communications officer), an email address or contact form, a telephone line, and sometimes links to a newsroom or media kit. The press address is often published on corporate sites, press releases, and media directories. Good practice emphasizes timely responses, clear attribution, and privacy considerations when handling inquiries. Organizations may maintain separate press addresses for crisis communications, investor relations, or non-media inquiries to streamline workflow.

As a brand or product name, pressaddress may be used by companies offering media-relations services, press-release distribution, or newsroom management software. In such uses, the term denotes a centralized hub for press materials and contact information, sometimes integrating with distribution lists and media databases. This usage varies and is not standardized, and it should be interpreted in context to the organization or service referencing it. See also press release, media contact, newsroom, and public relations.
