Recognizing the Gatekeeper Audience
Question Analysis: Who is the Audience? will cover this topic. One of the most crucial
aspects of message building is identifying and studying the target audience for the
message you will be crafting (Page 36). The individual in the organization who will
accept, encourage, or reject your ideas is another, and possibly even more significant,
initial audience for your work.
These individuals within the company are known as "gatekeepers" because they not
only distribute assignments but also have the authority to determine which messages are
generated, by whom, where, and what content they contain.
In commercial or communications companies, examples of "gatekeepers" include:
The assistant managing editors of a newspaper who designate stories to the right
reporters
The producers and assignment editors of a television station
Account managers for advertising agencies, public relations firms, and client services
managers
The chief communications officer of a company determines if the updated
communications plan is prepared to be presented to the CEO.
Maintaining the norms and "voice" that characterize the particular organization for
which they are "keeping the gates" is a crucial duty of gatekeepers.
Before the stories are forwarded to the next stage of the process of being printed in the
newspaper and posted online, the assistant managing editor in charge of assigning
stories to different reporters on a beat must determine whether or not the stories are
appropriate.
Reporters gain the ability to predict the types of stories that their editors, who act as
gatekeepers for the audience, are interested in. Every time a reporter uses a quote from a
specific source in a piece, one editor might react favorably. The reporter will make
every effort to incorporate that source into her stories. The broadcast producer in a
television news organization may react favorably each time a team of reporters and
photographers produces a story with specific kinds of images. Once more, in order to
satisfy the producer and secure a slot on the newscast, the reporter/photographer pair
will make every effort to choose that kind of footage.
The account management specialists at an advertising firm carry out a similar
gatekeeper role. In a public relations agency, client services managers carry out the
same task. They are in charge of getting in touch with the customer who is paying to
have the advertisements made or the PR work completed. The advertising or PR
campaign may not be sent for customer approval if the account manager is not satisfied
with what the other experts have produced. Communicators learn to modify their efforts
and produce advertisements or public relations pieces that are likely to be deemed
appropriate and prepared for client approval by account managers or client services
managers.
The communications manager of an organization serves as the gatekeeper in a business,
non-profit, government agency, or other comparable establishment. Every piece of
content that is posted on the organization's website, created for social media, sent to
mobile devices for marketing, or sent to the general public is subject to a review
procedure. If their work is to be presented to audiences, communicators inside a
company must follow the guidelines, procedures, and expectations set forth by the
communications manager.
Gatekeepers are the ones who will be assigning tasks at the beginning of the message
process. They are the ones who will decide whether you produced what was asked for,
and you will need to collaborate with them to make the assignment more clear so that
you have the best chance of meeting the requirements.
The requirements of the final "client" for whatever work you produce will be taken into
consideration by gatekeepers. A publication's editor will know who its readers are and
what they want from the pieces it publishes. The public relations client manager will be
aware of the client's campaign goals. The advertiser's sales targets will be known to the
advertising account manager. The manager of corporate communications will be aware
of the company's desired image. It is your responsibility to understand the task at hand
and understand how the work you do will ultimately contribute to the achievement of
everyone's goals.

generated, by whom, where, and what content they contain.
In commercial or communications companies, examples of "gatekeepers" include:
The assistant managing editors of a newspaper who designate stories to the right
reporters
The producers and assignment editors of a television station
Account managers for advertising agencies, public relations firms, and client services
managers
The chief communications officer of a company determines if the updated
communications plan is prepared to be presented to the CEO.
Maintaining the norms and "voice" that characterize the particular organization for
which they are "keeping the gates" is a crucial duty of gatekeepers.
Before the stories are forwarded to the next stage of the process of being printed in the
newspaper and posted online, the assistant managing editor in charge of assigning
stories to different reporters on a beat must determine whether or not the stories are
appropriate.
Reporters gain the ability to predict the types of stories that their editors, who act as
gatekeepers for the audience, are interested in. Every time a reporter uses a quote from a
specific source in a piece, one editor might react favorably. The reporter will make
every effort to incorporate that source into her stories. The broadcast producer in a
television news organization may react favorably each time a team of reporters and
photographers produces a story with specific kinds of images. Once more, in order to
satisfy the producer and secure a slot on the newscast, the reporter/photographer pair
will make every effort to choose that kind of footage.
The account management specialists at an advertising firm carry out a similar
gatekeeper role. In a public relations agency, client services managers carry out the
same task. They are in charge of getting in touch with the customer who is paying to
have the advertisements made or the PR work completed. The advertising or PR
campaign may not be sent for customer approval if the account manager is not satisfied
with what the other experts have produced. Communicators learn to modify their efforts
and produce advertisements or public relations pieces that are likely to be deemed
appropriate and prepared for client approval by account managers or client services
managers.
The communications manager of an organization serves as the gatekeeper in a business,
non-profit, government agency, or other comparable establishment. Every piece of
content that is posted on the organization's website, created for social media, sent to
mobile devices for marketing, or sent to the general public is subject to a review
procedure. If their work is to be presented to audiences, communicators inside a
company must follow the guidelines, procedures, and expectations set forth by the
communications manager.
Gatekeepers are the ones who will be assigning tasks at the beginning of the message
process. They are the ones who will decide whether you produced what was asked for,
and you will need to collaborate with them to make the assignment more clear so that
you have the best chance of meeting the requirements.
The requirements of the final "client" for whatever work you produce will be taken into
consideration by gatekeepers. A publication's editor will know who its readers are and
what they want from the pieces it publishes. The public relations client manager will be
aware of the client's campaign goals. The advertiser's sales targets will be known to the
advertising account manager. The manager of corporate communications will be aware
of the company's desired image. It is your responsibility to understand the task at hand
and understand how the work you do will ultimately contribute to the achievement of
everyone's goals.
Question Analysis: Who is the Audience? will cover this topic. One of the most crucial
aspects of message building is identifying and studying the target audience for the
message you will be crafting (Page 36). The individual in the organization who will
accept, encourage, or reject your ideas is another, and possibly even more significant,
initial audience for your work.

Maintaining the norms and "voice" that characterize the particular organization for
which they are "keeping the gates" is a crucial duty of gatekeepers.
Before the stories are forwarded to the next stage of the process of being printed in the
newspaper and posted online, the assistant managing editor in charge of assigning
stories to different reporters on a beat must determine whether or not the stories are
appropriate.
Reporters gain the ability to predict the types of stories that their editors, who act as
gatekeepers for the audience, are interested in. Every time a reporter uses a quote from a
specific source in a piece, one editor might react favorably. The reporter will make
every effort to incorporate that source into her stories. The broadcast producer in a
television news organization may react favorably each time a team of reporters and
photographers produces a story with specific kinds of images. Once more, in order to
satisfy the producer and secure a slot on the newscast, the reporter/photographer pair
will make every effort to choose that kind of footage.
The account management specialists at an advertising firm carry out a similar
gatekeeper role. In a public relations agency, client services managers carry out the
same task. They are in charge of getting in touch with the customer who is paying to
have the advertisements made or the PR work completed. The advertising or PR
campaign may not be sent for customer approval if the account manager is not satisfied
with what the other experts have produced. Communicators learn to modify their efforts
and produce advertisements or public relations pieces that are likely to be deemed
appropriate and prepared for client approval by account managers or client services
managers.
The communications manager of an organization serves as the gatekeeper in a business,
non-profit, government agency, or other comparable establishment. Every piece of
content that is posted on the organization's website, created for social media, sent to
mobile devices for marketing, or sent to the general public is subject to a review
procedure. If their work is to be presented to audiences, communicators inside a
company must follow the guidelines, procedures, and expectations set forth by the
communications manager.
Gatekeepers are the ones who will be assigning tasks at the beginning of the message
process. They are the ones who will decide whether you produced what was asked for,
and you will need to collaborate with them to make the assignment more clear so that
you have the best chance of meeting the requirements.
The requirements of the final "client" for whatever work you produce will be taken into
consideration by gatekeepers. A publication's editor will know who its readers are and
what they want from the pieces it publishes. The public relations client manager will be
aware of the client's campaign goals. The advertiser's sales targets will be known to the
advertising account manager. The manager of corporate communications will be aware
of the company's desired image. It is your responsibility to understand the task at hand
and understand how the work you do will ultimately contribute to the achievement of
everyone's goals.
Question Analysis: Who is the Audience? will cover this topic. One of the most crucial
aspects of message building is identifying and studying the target audience for the
message you will be crafting (Page 36). The individual in the organization who will
accept, encourage, or reject your ideas is another, and possibly even more significant,
initial audience for your work.
These individuals within the company are known as "gatekeepers" because they not
only distribute assignments but also have the authority to determine which messages are
generated, by whom, where, and what content they contain.
In commercial or communications companies, examples of "gatekeepers" include:
The assistant managing editors of a newspaper who designate stories to the right
reporters
The producers and assignment editors of a television station
Account managers for advertising agencies, public relations firms, and client services
managers

gatekeepers for the audience, are interested in. Every time a reporter uses a quote from a
specific source in a piece, one editor might react favorably. The reporter will make
every effort to incorporate that source into her stories. The broadcast producer in a
television news organization may react favorably each time a team of reporters and
photographers produces a story with specific kinds of images. Once more, in order to
satisfy the producer and secure a slot on the newscast, the reporter/photographer pair
will make every effort to choose that kind of footage.
The account management specialists at an advertising firm carry out a similar
gatekeeper role. In a public relations agency, client services managers carry out the
same task. They are in charge of getting in touch with the customer who is paying to
have the advertisements made or the PR work completed. The advertising or PR
campaign may not be sent for customer approval if the account manager is not satisfied
with what the other experts have produced. Communicators learn to modify their efforts
and produce advertisements or public relations pieces that are likely to be deemed
appropriate and prepared for client approval by account managers or client services
managers.
The communications manager of an organization serves as the gatekeeper in a business,
non-profit, government agency, or other comparable establishment. Every piece of
content that is posted on the organization's website, created for social media, sent to
mobile devices for marketing, or sent to the general public is subject to a review
procedure. If their work is to be presented to audiences, communicators inside a
company must follow the guidelines, procedures, and expectations set forth by the
communications manager.
Gatekeepers are the ones who will be assigning tasks at the beginning of the message
process. They are the ones who will decide whether you produced what was asked for,
and you will need to collaborate with them to make the assignment more clear so that
you have the best chance of meeting the requirements.
The requirements of the final "client" for whatever work you produce will be taken into
consideration by gatekeepers. A publication's editor will know who its readers are and
what they want from the pieces it publishes. The public relations client manager will be
aware of the client's campaign goals. The advertiser's sales targets will be known to the
advertising account manager. The manager of corporate communications will be aware
of the company's desired image. It is your responsibility to understand the task at hand
and understand how the work you do will ultimately contribute to the achievement of
everyone's goals.
Question Analysis: Who is the Audience? will cover this topic. One of the most crucial
aspects of message building is identifying and studying the target audience for the
message you will be crafting (Page 36). The individual in the organization who will
accept, encourage, or reject your ideas is another, and possibly even more significant,
initial audience for your work.
These individuals within the company are known as "gatekeepers" because they not
only distribute assignments but also have the authority to determine which messages are
generated, by whom, where, and what content they contain.
In commercial or communications companies, examples of "gatekeepers" include:
The assistant managing editors of a newspaper who designate stories to the right
reporters
The producers and assignment editors of a television station
Account managers for advertising agencies, public relations firms, and client services
managers
The chief communications officer of a company determines if the updated
communications plan is prepared to be presented to the CEO.
Maintaining the norms and "voice" that characterize the particular organization for
which they are "keeping the gates" is a crucial duty of gatekeepers.
Before the stories are forwarded to the next stage of the process of being printed in the
newspaper and posted online, the assistant managing editor in charge of assigning
stories to different reporters on a beat must determine whether or not the stories are
appropriate.

The account management specialists at an advertising firm carry out a similar
gatekeeper role. In a public relations agency, client services managers carry out the
same task. They are in charge of getting in touch with the customer who is paying to
have the advertisements made or the PR work completed. The advertising or PR
campaign may not be sent for customer approval if the account manager is not satisfied
with what the other experts have produced. Communicators learn to modify their efforts
and produce advertisements or public relations pieces that are likely to be deemed
appropriate and prepared for client approval by account managers or client services
managers.
The communications manager of an organization serves as the gatekeeper in a business,
non-profit, government agency, or other comparable establishment. Every piece of
content that is posted on the organization's website, created for social media, sent to
mobile devices for marketing, or sent to the general public is subject to a review
procedure. If their work is to be presented to audiences, communicators inside a
company must follow the guidelines, procedures, and expectations set forth by the
communications manager.
Gatekeepers are the ones who will be assigning tasks at the beginning of the message
process. They are the ones who will decide whether you produced what was asked for,
and you will need to collaborate with them to make the assignment more clear so that
you have the best chance of meeting the requirements.
The requirements of the final "client" for whatever work you produce will be taken into
consideration by gatekeepers. A publication's editor will know who its readers are and
what they want from the pieces it publishes. The public relations client manager will be
aware of the client's campaign goals. The advertiser's sales targets will be known to the
advertising account manager. The manager of corporate communications will be aware
of the company's desired image. It is your responsibility to understand the task at hand
and understand how the work you do will ultimately contribute to the achievement of
everyone's goals.
Question Analysis: Who is the Audience? will cover this topic. One of the most crucial
aspects of message building is identifying and studying the target audience for the
message you will be crafting (Page 36). The individual in the organization who will
accept, encourage, or reject your ideas is another, and possibly even more significant,
initial audience for your work.
These individuals within the company are known as "gatekeepers" because they not
only distribute assignments but also have the authority to determine which messages are
generated, by whom, where, and what content they contain.
In commercial or communications companies, examples of "gatekeepers" include:
The assistant managing editors of a newspaper who designate stories to the right
reporters
The producers and assignment editors of a television station
Account managers for advertising agencies, public relations firms, and client services
managers
The chief communications officer of a company determines if the updated
communications plan is prepared to be presented to the CEO.
Maintaining the norms and "voice" that characterize the particular organization for
which they are "keeping the gates" is a crucial duty of gatekeepers.
Before the stories are forwarded to the next stage of the process of being printed in the
newspaper and posted online, the assistant managing editor in charge of assigning
stories to different reporters on a beat must determine whether or not the stories are
appropriate.
Reporters gain the ability to predict the types of stories that their editors, who act as
gatekeepers for the audience, are interested in. Every time a reporter uses a quote from a
specific source in a piece, one editor might react favorably. The reporter will make
every effort to incorporate that source into her stories. The broadcast producer in a
television news organization may react favorably each time a team of reporters and
photographers produces a story with specific kinds of images. Once more, in order to
satisfy the producer and secure a slot on the newscast, the reporter/photographer pair
will make every effort to choose that kind of footage.

and produce advertisements or public relations pieces that are likely to be deemed
appropriate and prepared for client approval by account managers or client services
managers.
The communications manager of an organization serves as the gatekeeper in a business,
non-profit, government agency, or other comparable establishment. Every piece of
content that is posted on the organization's website, created for social media, sent to
mobile devices for marketing, or sent to the general public is subject to a review
procedure. If their work is to be presented to audiences, communicators inside a
company must follow the guidelines, procedures, and expectations set forth by the
communications manager.
Gatekeepers are the ones who will be assigning tasks at the beginning of the message
process. They are the ones who will decide whether you produced what was asked for,
and you will need to collaborate with them to make the assignment more clear so that
you have the best chance of meeting the requirements.
The requirements of the final "client" for whatever work you produce will be taken into
consideration by gatekeepers. A publication's editor will know who its readers are and
what they want from the pieces it publishes. The public relations client manager will be
aware of the client's campaign goals. The advertiser's sales targets will be known to the
advertising account manager. The manager of corporate communications will be aware
of the company's desired image. It is your responsibility to understand the task at hand
and understand how the work you do will ultimately contribute to the achievement of
everyone's goals.
Question Analysis: Who is the Audience? will cover this topic. One of the most crucial
aspects of message building is identifying and studying the target audience for the
message you will be crafting (Page 36). The individual in the organization who will
accept, encourage, or reject your ideas is another, and possibly even more significant,
initial audience for your work.
These individuals within the company are known as "gatekeepers" because they not
only distribute assignments but also have the authority to determine which messages are
generated, by whom, where, and what content they contain.
In commercial or communications companies, examples of "gatekeepers" include:
The assistant managing editors of a newspaper who designate stories to the right
reporters
The producers and assignment editors of a television station
Account managers for advertising agencies, public relations firms, and client services
managers
The chief communications officer of a company determines if the updated
communications plan is prepared to be presented to the CEO.
Maintaining the norms and "voice" that characterize the particular organization for
which they are "keeping the gates" is a crucial duty of gatekeepers.
Before the stories are forwarded to the next stage of the process of being printed in the
newspaper and posted online, the assistant managing editor in charge of assigning
stories to different reporters on a beat must determine whether or not the stories are
appropriate.
Reporters gain the ability to predict the types of stories that their editors, who act as
gatekeepers for the audience, are interested in. Every time a reporter uses a quote from a
specific source in a piece, one editor might react favorably. The reporter will make
every effort to incorporate that source into her stories. The broadcast producer in a
television news organization may react favorably each time a team of reporters and
photographers produces a story with specific kinds of images. Once more, in order to
satisfy the producer and secure a slot on the newscast, the reporter/photographer pair
will make every effort to choose that kind of footage.
The account management specialists at an advertising firm carry out a similar
gatekeeper role. In a public relations agency, client services managers carry out the
same task. They are in charge of getting in touch with the customer who is paying to
have the advertisements made or the PR work completed. The advertising or PR
campaign may not be sent for customer approval if the account manager is not satisfied

procedure. If their work is to be presented to audiences, communicators inside a
company must follow the guidelines, procedures, and expectations set forth by the
communications manager.
Gatekeepers are the ones who will be assigning tasks at the beginning of the message
process. They are the ones who will decide whether you produced what was asked for,
and you will need to collaborate with them to make the assignment more clear so that
you have the best chance of meeting the requirements.
The requirements of the final "client" for whatever work you produce will be taken into
consideration by gatekeepers. A publication's editor will know who its readers are and
what they want from the pieces it publishes. The public relations client manager will be
aware of the client's campaign goals. The advertiser's sales targets will be known to the
advertising account manager. The manager of corporate communications will be aware
of the company's desired image. It is your responsibility to understand the task at hand
and understand how the work you do will ultimately contribute to the achievement of
everyone's goals.
Question Analysis: Who is the Audience? will cover this topic. One of the most crucial
aspects of message building is identifying and studying the target audience for the
message you will be crafting (Page 36). The individual in the organization who will
accept, encourage, or reject your ideas is another, and possibly even more significant,
initial audience for your work.
These individuals within the company are known as "gatekeepers" because they not
only distribute assignments but also have the authority to determine which messages are
generated, by whom, where, and what content they contain.
In commercial or communications companies, examples of "gatekeepers" include:
The assistant managing editors of a newspaper who designate stories to the right
reporters
The producers and assignment editors of a television station
Account managers for advertising agencies, public relations firms, and client services
managers
The chief communications officer of a company determines if the updated
communications plan is prepared to be presented to the CEO.
Maintaining the norms and "voice" that characterize the particular organization for
which they are "keeping the gates" is a crucial duty of gatekeepers.
Before the stories are forwarded to the next stage of the process of being printed in the
newspaper and posted online, the assistant managing editor in charge of assigning
stories to different reporters on a beat must determine whether or not the stories are
appropriate.
Reporters gain the ability to predict the types of stories that their editors, who act as
gatekeepers for the audience, are interested in. Every time a reporter uses a quote from a
specific source in a piece, one editor might react favorably. The reporter will make
every effort to incorporate that source into her stories. The broadcast producer in a
television news organization may react favorably each time a team of reporters and
photographers produces a story with specific kinds of images. Once more, in order to
satisfy the producer and secure a slot on the newscast, the reporter/photographer pair
will make every effort to choose that kind of footage.
The account management specialists at an advertising firm carry out a similar
gatekeeper role. In a public relations agency, client services managers carry out the
same task. They are in charge of getting in touch with the customer who is paying to
have the advertisements made or the PR work completed. The advertising or PR
campaign may not be sent for customer approval if the account manager is not satisfied
with what the other experts have produced. Communicators learn to modify their efforts
and produce advertisements or public relations pieces that are likely to be deemed
appropriate and prepared for client approval by account managers or client services
managers.
The communications manager of an organization serves as the gatekeeper in a business,
non-profit, government agency, or other comparable establishment. Every piece of

The requirements of the final "client" for whatever work you produce will be taken into
consideration by gatekeepers. A publication's editor will know who its readers are and
what they want from the pieces it publishes. The public relations client manager will be
aware of the client's campaign goals. The advertiser's sales targets will be known to the
advertising account manager. The manager of corporate communications will be aware
of the company's desired image. It is your responsibility to understand the task at hand
and understand how the work you do will ultimately contribute to the achievement of
everyone's goals.
Question Analysis: Who is the Audience? will cover this topic. One of the most crucial
aspects of message building is identifying and studying the target audience for the
message you will be crafting (Page 36). The individual in the organization who will
accept, encourage, or reject your ideas is another, and possibly even more significant,
initial audience for your work.
These individuals within the company are known as "gatekeepers" because they not
only distribute assignments but also have the authority to determine which messages are
generated, by whom, where, and what content they contain.
In commercial or communications companies, examples of "gatekeepers" include:
The assistant managing editors of a newspaper who designate stories to the right
reporters
The producers and assignment editors of a television station
Account managers for advertising agencies, public relations firms, and client services
managers
The chief communications officer of a company determines if the updated
communications plan is prepared to be presented to the CEO.
Maintaining the norms and "voice" that characterize the particular organization for
which they are "keeping the gates" is a crucial duty of gatekeepers.
Before the stories are forwarded to the next stage of the process of being printed in the
newspaper and posted online, the assistant managing editor in charge of assigning
stories to different reporters on a beat must determine whether or not the stories are
appropriate.
Reporters gain the ability to predict the types of stories that their editors, who act as
gatekeepers for the audience, are interested in. Every time a reporter uses a quote from a
specific source in a piece, one editor might react favorably. The reporter will make
every effort to incorporate that source into her stories. The broadcast producer in a
television news organization may react favorably each time a team of reporters and
photographers produces a story with specific kinds of images. Once more, in order to
satisfy the producer and secure a slot on the newscast, the reporter/photographer pair
will make every effort to choose that kind of footage.
The account management specialists at an advertising firm carry out a similar
gatekeeper role. In a public relations agency, client services managers carry out the
same task. They are in charge of getting in touch with the customer who is paying to
have the advertisements made or the PR work completed. The advertising or PR
campaign may not be sent for customer approval if the account manager is not satisfied
with what the other experts have produced. Communicators learn to modify their efforts
and produce advertisements or public relations pieces that are likely to be deemed
appropriate and prepared for client approval by account managers or client services
managers.
The communications manager of an organization serves as the gatekeeper in a business,
non-profit, government agency, or other comparable establishment. Every piece of
content that is posted on the organization's website, created for social media, sent to
mobile devices for marketing, or sent to the general public is subject to a review
procedure. If their work is to be presented to audiences, communicators inside a
company must follow the guidelines, procedures, and expectations set forth by the
communications manager.
Gatekeepers are the ones who will be assigning tasks at the beginning of the message
process. They are the ones who will decide whether you produced what was asked for,
and you will need to collaborate with them to make the assignment more clear so that
you have the best chance of meeting the requirements.

and understand how the work you do will ultimately contribute to the achievement of
everyone's goals.
Question Analysis: Who is the Audience? will cover this topic. One of the most crucial
aspects of message building is identifying and studying the target audience for the
message you will be crafting (Page 36). The individual in the organization who will
accept, encourage, or reject your ideas is another, and possibly even more significant,
initial audience for your work.
These individuals within the company are known as "gatekeepers" because they not
only distribute assignments but also have the authority to determine which messages are
generated, by whom, where, and what content they contain.
In commercial or communications companies, examples of "gatekeepers" include:
The assistant managing editors of a newspaper who designate stories to the right
reporters
The producers and assignment editors of a television station
Account managers for advertising agencies, public relations firms, and client services
managers
The chief communications officer of a company determines if the updated
communications plan is prepared to be presented to the CEO.
Maintaining the norms and "voice" that characterize the particular organization for
which they are "keeping the gates" is a crucial duty of gatekeepers.
Before the stories are forwarded to the next stage of the process of being printed in the
newspaper and posted online, the assistant managing editor in charge of assigning
stories to different reporters on a beat must determine whether or not the stories are
appropriate.
Reporters gain the ability to predict the types of stories that their editors, who act as
gatekeepers for the audience, are interested in. Every time a reporter uses a quote from a
specific source in a piece, one editor might react favorably. The reporter will make
every effort to incorporate that source into her stories. The broadcast producer in a
television news organization may react favorably each time a team of reporters and
photographers produces a story with specific kinds of images. Once more, in order to
satisfy the producer and secure a slot on the newscast, the reporter/photographer pair
will make every effort to choose that kind of footage.
The account management specialists at an advertising firm carry out a similar
gatekeeper role. In a public relations agency, client services managers carry out the
same task. They are in charge of getting in touch with the customer who is paying to
have the advertisements made or the PR work completed. The advertising or PR
campaign may not be sent for customer approval if the account manager is not satisfied
with what the other experts have produced. Communicators learn to modify their efforts
and produce advertisements or public relations pieces that are likely to be deemed
appropriate and prepared for client approval by account managers or client services
managers.
The communications manager of an organization serves as the gatekeeper in a business,
non-profit, government agency, or other comparable establishment. Every piece of
content that is posted on the organization's website, created for social media, sent to
mobile devices for marketing, or sent to the general public is subject to a review
procedure. If their work is to be presented to audiences, communicators inside a
company must follow the guidelines, procedures, and expectations set forth by the
communications manager.
Gatekeepers are the ones who will be assigning tasks at the beginning of the message
process. They are the ones who will decide whether you produced what was asked for,
and you will need to collaborate with them to make the assignment more clear so that
you have the best chance of meeting the requirements.
The requirements of the final "client" for whatever work you produce will be taken into
consideration by gatekeepers. A publication's editor will know who its readers are and
what they want from the pieces it publishes. The public relations client manager will be
aware of the client's campaign goals. The advertiser's sales targets will be known to the
advertising account manager. The manager of corporate communications will be aware
of the company's desired image. It is your responsibility to understand the task at hand
and understand how the work you do will ultimately contribute to the achievement of
everyone's goals.

These individuals within the company are known as "gatekeepers" because they not
only distribute assignments but also have the authority to determine which messages are
generated, by whom, where, and what content they contain.
In commercial or communications companies, examples of "gatekeepers" include:
The assistant managing editors of a newspaper who designate stories to the right
reporters
The producers and assignment editors of a television station
Account managers for advertising agencies, public relations firms, and client services
managers
The chief communications officer of a company determines if the updated
communications plan is prepared to be presented to the CEO.
Maintaining the norms and "voice" that characterize the particular organization for
which they are "keeping the gates" is a crucial duty of gatekeepers.
Before the stories are forwarded to the next stage of the process of being printed in the
newspaper and posted online, the assistant managing editor in charge of assigning
stories to different reporters on a beat must determine whether or not the stories are
appropriate.
Reporters gain the ability to predict the types of stories that their editors, who act as
gatekeepers for the audience, are interested in. Every time a reporter uses a quote from a
specific source in a piece, one editor might react favorably. The reporter will make
every effort to incorporate that source into her stories. The broadcast producer in a
television news organization may react favorably each time a team of reporters and
photographers produces a story with specific kinds of images. Once more, in order to
satisfy the producer and secure a slot on the newscast, the reporter/photographer pair
will make every effort to choose that kind of footage.
The account management specialists at an advertising firm carry out a similar
gatekeeper role. In a public relations agency, client services managers carry out the
same task. They are in charge of getting in touch with the customer who is paying to
have the advertisements made or the PR work completed. The advertising or PR
campaign may not be sent for customer approval if the account manager is not satisfied
with what the other experts have produced. Communicators learn to modify their efforts
and produce advertisements or public relations pieces that are likely to be deemed
appropriate and prepared for client approval by account managers or client services
managers.
The communications manager of an organization serves as the gatekeeper in a business,
non-profit, government agency, or other comparable establishment. Every piece of
content that is posted on the organization's website, created for social media, sent to
mobile devices for marketing, or sent to the general public is subject to a review
procedure. If their work is to be presented to audiences, communicators inside a
company must follow the guidelines, procedures, and expectations set forth by the
communications manager.
Gatekeepers are the ones who will be assigning tasks at the beginning of the message
process. They are the ones who will decide whether you produced what was asked for,
and you will need to collaborate with them to make the assignment more clear so that
you have the best chance of meeting the requirements.
The requirements of the final "client" for whatever work you produce will be taken into
consideration by gatekeepers. A publication's editor will know who its readers are and
what they want from the pieces it publishes. The public relations client manager will be
aware of the client's campaign goals. The advertiser's sales targets will be known to the
advertising account manager. The manager of corporate communications will be aware
of the company's desired image. It is your responsibility to understand the task at hand
and understand how the work you do will ultimately contribute to the achievement of
everyone's goals.

The chief communications officer of a company determines if the updated
communications plan is prepared to be presented to the CEO.
Maintaining the norms and "voice" that characterize the particular organization for
which they are "keeping the gates" is a crucial duty of gatekeepers.
Before the stories are forwarded to the next stage of the process of being printed in the
newspaper and posted online, the assistant managing editor in charge of assigning
stories to different reporters on a beat must determine whether or not the stories are
appropriate.
Reporters gain the ability to predict the types of stories that their editors, who act as
gatekeepers for the audience, are interested in. Every time a reporter uses a quote from a
specific source in a piece, one editor might react favorably. The reporter will make
every effort to incorporate that source into her stories. The broadcast producer in a
television news organization may react favorably each time a team of reporters and
photographers produces a story with specific kinds of images. Once more, in order to
satisfy the producer and secure a slot on the newscast, the reporter/photographer pair
will make every effort to choose that kind of footage.
The account management specialists at an advertising firm carry out a similar
gatekeeper role. In a public relations agency, client services managers carry out the
same task. They are in charge of getting in touch with the customer who is paying to
have the advertisements made or the PR work completed. The advertising or PR
campaign may not be sent for customer approval if the account manager is not satisfied
with what the other experts have produced. Communicators learn to modify their efforts
and produce advertisements or public relations pieces that are likely to be deemed
appropriate and prepared for client approval by account managers or client services
managers.
The communications manager of an organization serves as the gatekeeper in a business,
non-profit, government agency, or other comparable establishment. Every piece of
content that is posted on the organization's website, created for social media, sent to
mobile devices for marketing, or sent to the general public is subject to a review
procedure. If their work is to be presented to audiences, communicators inside a
company must follow the guidelines, procedures, and expectations set forth by the
communications manager.
Gatekeepers are the ones who will be assigning tasks at the beginning of the message
process. They are the ones who will decide whether you produced what was asked for,
and you will need to collaborate with them to make the assignment more clear so that
you have the best chance of meeting the requirements.
The requirements of the final "client" for whatever work you produce will be taken into
consideration by gatekeepers. A publication's editor will know who its readers are and
what they want from the pieces it publishes. The public relations client manager will be
aware of the client's campaign goals. The advertiser's sales targets will be known to the
advertising account manager. The manager of corporate communications will be aware
of the company's desired image. It is your responsibility to understand the task at hand
and understand how the work you do will ultimately contribute to the achievement of
everyone's goals.
Question Analysis: Who is the Audience? will cover this topic. One of the most crucial
aspects of message building is identifying and studying the target audience for the
message you will be crafting (Page 36). The individual in the organization who will
accept, encourage, or reject your ideas is another, and possibly even more significant,
initial audience for your work.
These individuals within the company are known as "gatekeepers" because they not
only distribute assignments but also have the authority to determine which messages are
generated, by whom, where, and what content they contain.
In commercial or communications companies, examples of "gatekeepers" include:
The assistant managing editors of a newspaper who designate stories to the right
reporters

Reporters gain the ability to predict the types of stories that their editors, who act as
gatekeepers for the audience, are interested in. Every time a reporter uses a quote from a
specific source in a piece, one editor might react favorably. The reporter will make
every effort to incorporate that source into her stories. The broadcast producer in a
television news organization may react favorably each time a team of reporters and
photographers produces a story with specific kinds of images. Once more, in order to
satisfy the producer and secure a slot on the newscast, the reporter/photographer pair
will make every effort to choose that kind of footage.
The account management specialists at an advertising firm carry out a similar
gatekeeper role. In a public relations agency, client services managers carry out the
same task. They are in charge of getting in touch with the customer who is paying to
have the advertisements made or the PR work completed. The advertising or PR
campaign may not be sent for customer approval if the account manager is not satisfied
with what the other experts have produced. Communicators learn to modify their efforts
and produce advertisements or public relations pieces that are likely to be deemed
appropriate and prepared for client approval by account managers or client services
managers.
The communications manager of an organization serves as the gatekeeper in a business,
non-profit, government agency, or other comparable establishment. Every piece of
content that is posted on the organization's website, created for social media, sent to
mobile devices for marketing, or sent to the general public is subject to a review
procedure. If their work is to be presented to audiences, communicators inside a
company must follow the guidelines, procedures, and expectations set forth by the
communications manager.
Gatekeepers are the ones who will be assigning tasks at the beginning of the message
process. They are the ones who will decide whether you produced what was asked for,
and you will need to collaborate with them to make the assignment more clear so that
you have the best chance of meeting the requirements.
The requirements of the final "client" for whatever work you produce will be taken into
consideration by gatekeepers. A publication's editor will know who its readers are and
what they want from the pieces it publishes. The public relations client manager will be
aware of the client's campaign goals. The advertiser's sales targets will be known to the
advertising account manager. The manager of corporate communications will be aware
of the company's desired image. It is your responsibility to understand the task at hand
and understand how the work you do will ultimately contribute to the achievement of
everyone's goals.
Question Analysis: Who is the Audience? will cover this topic. One of the most crucial
aspects of message building is identifying and studying the target audience for the
message you will be crafting (Page 36). The individual in the organization who will
accept, encourage, or reject your ideas is another, and possibly even more significant,
initial audience for your work.
These individuals within the company are known as "gatekeepers" because they not
only distribute assignments but also have the authority to determine which messages are
generated, by whom, where, and what content they contain.
In commercial or communications companies, examples of "gatekeepers" include:
The assistant managing editors of a newspaper who designate stories to the right
reporters
The producers and assignment editors of a television station
Account managers for advertising agencies, public relations firms, and client services
managers
The chief communications officer of a company determines if the updated
communications plan is prepared to be presented to the CEO.
Maintaining the norms and "voice" that characterize the particular organization for
which they are "keeping the gates" is a crucial duty of gatekeepers.
Before the stories are forwarded to the next stage of the process of being printed in the
newspaper and posted online, the assistant managing editor in charge of assigning
stories to different reporters on a beat must determine whether or not the stories are

satisfy the producer and secure a slot on the newscast, the reporter/photographer pair
will make every effort to choose that kind of footage.
The account management specialists at an advertising firm carry out a similar
gatekeeper role. In a public relations agency, client services managers carry out the
same task. They are in charge of getting in touch with the customer who is paying to
have the advertisements made or the PR work completed. The advertising or PR
campaign may not be sent for customer approval if the account manager is not satisfied
with what the other experts have produced. Communicators learn to modify their efforts
and produce advertisements or public relations pieces that are likely to be deemed
appropriate and prepared for client approval by account managers or client services
managers.
The communications manager of an organization serves as the gatekeeper in a business,
non-profit, government agency, or other comparable establishment. Every piece of
content that is posted on the organization's website, created for social media, sent to
mobile devices for marketing, or sent to the general public is subject to a review
procedure. If their work is to be presented to audiences, communicators inside a
company must follow the guidelines, procedures, and expectations set forth by the
communications manager.
Gatekeepers are the ones who will be assigning tasks at the beginning of the message
process. They are the ones who will decide whether you produced what was asked for,
and you will need to collaborate with them to make the assignment more clear so that
you have the best chance of meeting the requirements.
The requirements of the final "client" for whatever work you produce will be taken into
consideration by gatekeepers. A publication's editor will know who its readers are and
what they want from the pieces it publishes. The public relations client manager will be
aware of the client's campaign goals. The advertiser's sales targets will be known to the
advertising account manager. The manager of corporate communications will be aware
of the company's desired image. It is your responsibility to understand the task at hand
and understand how the work you do will ultimately contribute to the achievement of
everyone's goals.
Question Analysis: Who is the Audience? will cover this topic. One of the most crucial
aspects of message building is identifying and studying the target audience for the
message you will be crafting (Page 36). The individual in the organization who will
accept, encourage, or reject your ideas is another, and possibly even more significant,
initial audience for your work.
These individuals within the company are known as "gatekeepers" because they not
only distribute assignments but also have the authority to determine which messages are
generated, by whom, where, and what content they contain.
In commercial or communications companies, examples of "gatekeepers" include:
The assistant managing editors of a newspaper who designate stories to the right
reporters
The producers and assignment editors of a television station
Account managers for advertising agencies, public relations firms, and client services
managers
The chief communications officer of a company determines if the updated
communications plan is prepared to be presented to the CEO.
Maintaining the norms and "voice" that characterize the particular organization for
which they are "keeping the gates" is a crucial duty of gatekeepers.
Before the stories are forwarded to the next stage of the process of being printed in the
newspaper and posted online, the assistant managing editor in charge of assigning
stories to different reporters on a beat must determine whether or not the stories are
appropriate.
Reporters gain the ability to predict the types of stories that their editors, who act as
gatekeepers for the audience, are interested in. Every time a reporter uses a quote from a
specific source in a piece, one editor might react favorably. The reporter will make
every effort to incorporate that source into her stories. The broadcast producer in a
television news organization may react favorably each time a team of reporters and
photographers produces a story with specific kinds of images. Once more, in order to
satisfy the producer and secure a slot on the newscast, the reporter/photographer pair
will make every effort to choose that kind of footage.

campaign may not be sent for customer approval if the account manager is not satisfied
with what the other experts have produced. Communicators learn to modify their efforts
and produce advertisements or public relations pieces that are likely to be deemed
appropriate and prepared for client approval by account managers or client services
managers.
The communications manager of an organization serves as the gatekeeper in a business,
non-profit, government agency, or other comparable establishment. Every piece of
content that is posted on the organization's website, created for social media, sent to
mobile devices for marketing, or sent to the general public is subject to a review
procedure. If their work is to be presented to audiences, communicators inside a
company must follow the guidelines, procedures, and expectations set forth by the
communications manager.
Gatekeepers are the ones who will be assigning tasks at the beginning of the message
process. They are the ones who will decide whether you produced what was asked for,
and you will need to collaborate with them to make the assignment more clear so that
you have the best chance of meeting the requirements.
The requirements of the final "client" for whatever work you produce will be taken into
consideration by gatekeepers. A publication's editor will know who its readers are and
what they want from the pieces it publishes. The public relations client manager will be
aware of the client's campaign goals. The advertiser's sales targets will be known to the
advertising account manager. The manager of corporate communications will be aware
of the company's desired image. It is your responsibility to understand the task at hand
and understand how the work you do will ultimately contribute to the achievement of
everyone's goals.
Question Analysis: Who is the Audience? will cover this topic. One of the most crucial
aspects of message building is identifying and studying the target audience for the
message you will be crafting (Page 36). The individual in the organization who will
accept, encourage, or reject your ideas is another, and possibly even more significant,
initial audience for your work.
These individuals within the company are known as "gatekeepers" because they not
only distribute assignments but also have the authority to determine which messages are
generated, by whom, where, and what content they contain.
In commercial or communications companies, examples of "gatekeepers" include:
The assistant managing editors of a newspaper who designate stories to the right
reporters
The producers and assignment editors of a television station
Account managers for advertising agencies, public relations firms, and client services
managers
The chief communications officer of a company determines if the updated
communications plan is prepared to be presented to the CEO.
Maintaining the norms and "voice" that characterize the particular organization for
which they are "keeping the gates" is a crucial duty of gatekeepers.
Before the stories are forwarded to the next stage of the process of being printed in the
newspaper and posted online, the assistant managing editor in charge of assigning
stories to different reporters on a beat must determine whether or not the stories are
appropriate.
Reporters gain the ability to predict the types of stories that their editors, who act as
gatekeepers for the audience, are interested in. Every time a reporter uses a quote from a
specific source in a piece, one editor might react favorably. The reporter will make
every effort to incorporate that source into her stories. The broadcast producer in a
television news organization may react favorably each time a team of reporters and
photographers produces a story with specific kinds of images. Once more, in order to
satisfy the producer and secure a slot on the newscast, the reporter/photographer pair
will make every effort to choose that kind of footage.
The account management specialists at an advertising firm carry out a similar
gatekeeper role. In a public relations agency, client services managers carry out the

content that is posted on the organization's website, created for social media, sent to
mobile devices for marketing, or sent to the general public is subject to a review
procedure. If their work is to be presented to audiences, communicators inside a
company must follow the guidelines, procedures, and expectations set forth by the
communications manager.
Gatekeepers are the ones who will be assigning tasks at the beginning of the message
process. They are the ones who will decide whether you produced what was asked for,
and you will need to collaborate with them to make the assignment more clear so that
you have the best chance of meeting the requirements.
The requirements of the final "client" for whatever work you produce will be taken into
consideration by gatekeepers. A publication's editor will know who its readers are and
what they want from the pieces it publishes. The public relations client manager will be
aware of the client's campaign goals. The advertiser's sales targets will be known to the
advertising account manager. The manager of corporate communications will be aware
of the company's desired image. It is your responsibility to understand the task at hand
and understand how the work you do will ultimately contribute to the achievement of
everyone's goals.
Question Analysis: Who is the Audience? will cover this topic. One of the most crucial
aspects of message building is identifying and studying the target audience for the
message you will be crafting (Page 36). The individual in the organization who will
accept, encourage, or reject your ideas is another, and possibly even more significant,
initial audience for your work.
These individuals within the company are known as "gatekeepers" because they not
only distribute assignments but also have the authority to determine which messages are
generated, by whom, where, and what content they contain.
In commercial or communications companies, examples of "gatekeepers" include:
The assistant managing editors of a newspaper who designate stories to the right
reporters
The producers and assignment editors of a television station
Account managers for advertising agencies, public relations firms, and client services
managers
The chief communications officer of a company determines if the updated
communications plan is prepared to be presented to the CEO.
Maintaining the norms and "voice" that characterize the particular organization for
which they are "keeping the gates" is a crucial duty of gatekeepers.
Before the stories are forwarded to the next stage of the process of being printed in the
newspaper and posted online, the assistant managing editor in charge of assigning
stories to different reporters on a beat must determine whether or not the stories are
appropriate.
Reporters gain the ability to predict the types of stories that their editors, who act as
gatekeepers for the audience, are interested in. Every time a reporter uses a quote from a
specific source in a piece, one editor might react favorably. The reporter will make
every effort to incorporate that source into her stories. The broadcast producer in a
television news organization may react favorably each time a team of reporters and
photographers produces a story with specific kinds of images. Once more, in order to
satisfy the producer and secure a slot on the newscast, the reporter/photographer pair
will make every effort to choose that kind of footage.
The account management specialists at an advertising firm carry out a similar
gatekeeper role. In a public relations agency, client services managers carry out the
same task. They are in charge of getting in touch with the customer who is paying to
have the advertisements made or the PR work completed. The advertising or PR
campaign may not be sent for customer approval if the account manager is not satisfied
with what the other experts have produced. Communicators learn to modify their efforts
and produce advertisements or public relations pieces that are likely to be deemed
appropriate and prepared for client approval by account managers or client services
managers.
