  13. What to do if:a reporter or science writer contacts you • NEVER give an interview on the spot • NEVER speak “off the record” • Get pertinent information • Are they working on a deadline? • What do they want to talk about? • Ask them to email you their questions • Call your communications office

  14. What to do if:you have research results with mass appeal • Identify the target audience • Media – must have a “news” angle • General public – you must use laymen’s terms • Congress/stakeholders—can be related to jobs or the economy • Are there compelling visuals? • Allow time to prepare • Contact your communications office and NSF

  15. Embargoes • What are they? • What if there isn’t one? • Why are they beneficial?
