My point was that what you think is news, is actually PR. You might have the image of journalists hard at work in the field gathering news, but most the news you get is actually not that, it's straight out PR. It is not someone observing something, it is some official body sending out PR to journalists. That can be the police, it can be a government, it can be companies, etc. It is published as "news" but is not what you think it is. I think your point is that some PR is officially PR but that's not what I'm talking about.
