How Command News works

See the news as it’s pushed from The Canadian Press to hundreds of newsrooms.

Command News gives PR professionals instant email alerts when developing stories affect their organization, or match their keywords and search criteria − the same stories written by more than 200 journalists

and often picked up "as is" from The Canadian Press Wire by daily newspapers and more than 500 radio and TV stations for use online, in upcoming newscasts and in tomorrow’s print pages. No other service gives you this kind of access to real time, breaking news stories and audio clips from The Canadian Press Wire while there’s still a chance to make an impact on the media’s coverage.

Command News provides media forecasting vs. traditional media monitoring.

  1. Our 200+ journalists report on the news as it's happening across Canada. We also issue "advisories" indicating what we plan to cover in the days and weeks ahead.
  2. Our stories, advisories + AP's world news, move across The Canadian Press Wire.
    Command News alerts you here, BEFORE it's too late. It helps you be PROACTIVE with your PR strategy.
  3. Print, broadcast and digital news media often publish our stories "as is" because they've trusted our fast, accurate reporting for 100 years.
  4. Media monitoring services collect news clippings and transcripts after they're published or broadcast.
  5. You receive the clippings here, after the news is published.
    Media monitoring notifies you AFTER the fact. It helps you be REACTIVE and measure your coverage.
