News conference

A news conference or press conference is a media event in which newsmakers invite journalists to hear them speak and, most often, ask questions. A joint press conference instead is held between two or more talking sides.

Practice

In a news conference, one or more speakers may make a statement, which may be followed by questions from reporters. Sometimes only questioning occurs; sometimes there is a statement with no questions permitted.

A media event at which no statements are made, and no questions allowed, is called a photo op. A government may wish to open their proceedings for the media to witness events, such as the passing of a piece of legislation from the government in parliament to the senate, via a media availability.

Television stations and networks especially value news conferences: because today's TV news programs air for hours at a time, or even continuously, assignment editors have a steady appetite for ever-larger quantities of footage.

News conferences are often held by politicians (such as the President of the United States); by sports teams; by celebrities or film studios; by commercial organizations to promote products; by attorneys to promote lawsuits; and by almost anyone who finds benefit in the free publicity afforded by media coverage. Some people, including many police chiefs, hold news conferences reluctantly in order to avoid dealing with reporters individually.

Subramanian Swamy

Subramanian Swamy (born 15 September 1939) is an Indian politician from the state of Tamil Nadu. He is also an economist and a former cabinet minister. He was the President of the Janata Party. He merged his party on 11 August 2013 with Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP). Swamy had served as a member of the Planning Commission of India and Cabinet Minister of India. He has written on foreign affairs of India dealing largely with China, Pakistan and Israel. He is also a published author.

Earlier in November 1978, Swamy was member of the Group of Eminent persons called to Geneva to prepare a report of the United Nations (United Nations Conference on Trade and Development (UNCTAD)) on Economic Co-operation between Developing countries (ECDC). Swamy also simplified trade procedures and formulated a new export strategy which became the forerunner of trade reform adopted subsequently. In 1994, Swamy was appointed as Chairman of the Commission on Labour Standards and International Trade by then Prime Minister P. V. Narasimha Rao. This was perhaps for the first time that an Opposition Party member was given a Cabinet rank post by the ruling party. He also serves as chairman of the Board of Governors of the SCMS Group of Educational Institutions in Kerala.

Press Conference

Soloist (Male):
Does your opponent deserve such abuse?
Freddie:
All Soviets deserve abuse.
Soloist (Female):
But even you must concede he can play.
Freddie:
Sure, he’s the best red on the circuit, I’ll give him that.
Soloist (Male):
He hasn’t lost for a long time; he could be a tough nut to crack.
Freddie:
Listen, if he gets one game off me, it’s because I want to keep press interest going.
Soloists:
Why do you persist with vicious attacks, ungracious remarks re: opponents, it smacks of a lack of conviction- admit you’re under duress, or that your only skill left is for money not chess. If Soviet life is as grim as you claim, then how come the boys are so good at the game? Though you swear the American dream is clearly the best, you’re no advertisement for life and times in the west.
Soloist (Male):
Why did you risk the whole match breaking down?
Freddie:
I don’t know what you’re saying. What are you implying?
Soloist (Female):
All your outrageous demands, such conceit.
Freddie:
I don’t see anything outrageous about demanding what I’m worth.
Soloist (Male):
They pay you all that you ask for and then you demand even more.
Freddie:
I am the reason you’re all here! Who had heard of Sergievsky?
Soloists:
It’s hard to believe what we’re reporting. Why so disparaging? Not very sporting.
Freddie:
Are the Communists sporting? My God!
Soloists:
Tell all this to the United Nations. Are you an asset to east/west relations?
Freddie:
What is this? What have the Russians ever done for “east/west relations”? Have you people got any serious questions?
Soloist (Female):
Will you be quitting for good if you lose?
Soloist (Male):
How come your second’s a girl, lover boy?
Freddie:
What did you say?
Soloist (Male):
How come your second’s a girl, lover boy?
Soloists:
Well, what did I say? He’s out of his tree, he’s finally flipped and between you and me, he’s no hope of retaining his crown in his frame of mind, in fact he shouldn’t have come here, he should have resigned.
Florence (Same time as soloists):
Smile! You’ve got your first exclusive story. Now you can bask in his reflected glory. “Naked, unprovoked, Yankee aggression” Oh, what a credit to your great profession!
Soloists (Same time as Florence):
Well, what did I say? He’s out of his tree, he’s finally flipped and between you and me, he’s no hope of retaining his crown in his frame of mind, in fact he shouldn’t have come here, he should have resigned. In his frame of mind he should have come, he should resign, when he is in his frame of mind, he shouldn’t come he should resign, when he is in his frame of mind, he shouldn’t come he should resign.
Soloists:
