as stated, i would enjoy a more personal approach, but i can handle a few official press releases coming down the pipe.

Since I've been snarfing up press releases for the Vlog Press Kit I don't
particularly mind, but certainly understand how the rest of the group might
find them not in keeping with the atmosphere we aspire to foster.
Perhaps if we think of these press releases as learning tools rather than
insults they would be more palatable.
Was that a good press release? What if you were a real journalist and
received it? Would you be motivated to follow up?

I completely agree with that approach. Press releases don't exactly
foster meaningful discussions like a message from a real person do...
