An organization must carefully weigh the advantages and disadvantages of each medium before investing time, creativity, and money in it. For example, a news conference or a groundbreaking ceremony that recieves TV coverage is uncontrolled communication, because the PR person has no assurance that the cameras will record the event or focus the coverage in the desired way.
