Trending Topics
In addition to the newsworthy headlines above, the PR Newswire team identified several larger trending topics in February:
-- The Big Game: PR Newswire was distributing announcements tied to the NFL
championship as far back as November and the wave of releases for Big
Game commercials, snack ideas, related events and more just kept coming
through gameday. This year's ads were heavy on the celebrity spots and
focused more on health and wellness than the previous year. Food is
always a big part of the game and this year, we distributed
snack-related announcements from Popeyes, 7-Eleven, Chipotle and more.
Brands like Marriott, Fetch and Cirkul also got in on the action with
their gametime giveaways.
-- Valentine's Day: Love was (literally) in the air last month as brands
relied on PR Newswire to share their Valentine's Day product launches,
promotions and events. And just as love comes in a variety of forms, so
too did the press releases. The headlines ranged from a charity event to
show love for Alzheimer's caregivers to month-long celebrations for
travelers, loving stories of pet adoption, and safety tips for those
ever-popular metallic balloons. Some brands expanded beyond the beloved
gifts of chocolate and jewelry - like Panera's BAEgel promotion and
MySmile's gift of a bright, healthy smile.
-- Black History Month: Throughout February, companies across industries
teamed with PR Newswire to share news of their events, philanthropy
initiatives and more to honor and uplift the Black community. Some of
February's most-read releases tied to the category included a plan to
acquire TGI Fridays that also acts as a step toward increasing Black
ownership in the national restaurant industry, as well as a call for
more targeted cancer research for the Black community. Other
announcements celebrated Black entrepreneurs, the legacy of HBCUs and
bridge-building between Black and Jewish communities.
Coming up: In March, we expect to see a wave of headlines tied to Mobile World Congress (March 3-6), SXSW (March 7-15) and the college basketball tournament. Plus, holidays like Mardi Gras, International Women's Day, St. Patrick's Day and more will have us keeping our eyes on related headlines distributed via PR Newswire.
