News Release Format
Fonts are set automatically when the news release is entered into our system, so the only general formatting requirements are that copy should be aligned left, single-spaced and use block paragraphs separated by a single space. Do not use indentations or paragraph styles.
First Line: mm/dd/yyyy
Second Line: Contact:
Third Line: Source: (Name of contact, department (or title), phone xxx/xxx-xxxx, e-mail
List additional contacts as needed.)
Line Space
Headlines: Only the first word in caps, unless it's a proper noun
Line Space
Begin Initial Paragraph: CITY, State (abv.) – (i.e. PULLMAN, Wash. –) Note that city name is all caps. Do not bold city and state.
