Muck Rack

While social isn’t going away, how journalists use it is changing. Muck Rack’s State of Journalism report highlights a few key shifts: 1️⃣ Fewer journalists rely on social for reporting (down to 21%) 2️⃣ But it remains critical for promotion (45%) 3️⃣ Platform value is shifting — LinkedIn is gaining trust, while others are losing ground 4️⃣ Safety concerns are shaping how journalists show up and engage online Social is becoming less about sourcing stories for journalists and more about promotion.

Are AI answers shaped by earned media? Yes, and it’s not new. Our May 2026 “What Is AI Reading?” research reinforces a pattern we’ve now seen across three reports – AI systems rely on earned media over paid content. Based on analysis of 25M+ links, earned media accounts for 84% of all citations, including journalism, academic research, government sources, encyclopedic sites and third-party corporate content. Each LLM also has its own citing habits. ChatGPT cites sources in 96% of responses, Gemini cites in 82% and Claude is the most selective, citing in just 55% of responses. Journalism citations span 20,000+ outlets, with one standout: @axios appears in ChatGPT’s top three cited domains across 13 of 17 industries. It’s the only outlet to rank that consistently across providers. As AI-generated answers continue to replace traditional search results, comms and marketing leaders are under increasing pressure to understand and act on this shift. This report gives you the insights to do both. Read the full report: bit.ly/48PsRQR

The season has officially begun 👀✨ Fresh strategies, bold moves and just enough intrigue to keep things interesting. Here’s to a strong start to the year and may your stories be the ones everyone’s talking about.

AI use is growing in newsrooms, but journalists are still figuring out what belongs in the workflow and what doesn’t. 🗞️ We spoke with three journalists about how they’re using AI, what excites them and their concerns heading into 2026. 🔗 bit.ly/4qwTeln

Our State of AI in PR 2026 report shows that AI adoption is at its peak, with 76% of PR pros now using generative AI and organizations rapidly formalizing how it’s used. More than half of PR pros say their company has an AI use policy and three out of four now pay for at least one AI tool. But the data also shows nuance, with most PR pros still wanting humans firmly in the loop. This report offers a clear view into how AI is shaping PR workflows today and what teams should be preparing for next. Read the full report: bit.ly/4bAEvkK
