A Necessary Tool in a Saturated Digital World
Radio & TV Monitoring.. Is it still useful to PR and Communication in the digital media era? Social media and news sites may be dominant, but Radio and TV remain two very powerful pillars of information. They offer directness and emotional connection to the audience that few media can compete with.
Radio & TV Monitoring is paramount in order to understand public opinion, strategically manage one’s reputation and optimize the decision-making process. Businesses that by-pass traditional media risk missing important information that could influence their success.
Radio & TV Monitoring is not important only for businesses. It is equally important for governments, NGOs and public figures who wish to understand public opinion trends and improve their communication strategy.
Direct Access to Information
Real-time Radio & TV Monitoring allows businesses to directly access information about the way major TV and radio stations refer to their brand. Such information allows strategic decision-making, campaign adjustments and crisis management.
Clip News offers alerts that are sent directly to your e-mail about any reference to the keywords you are interested in, making sure you are informed promptly.
Enhancing Reputation with Strategic Interventions
Real-time Radio & TV Monitoring allows corporations to handle their reputation effectively and cultivate a strong and persistent public image. Data analysis allows corporations to spot improvement opportunities. Moreover, content classification and sentiment analysis help detect trends that can guide communication strategies and strengthen the public’s relationship with a specific brand.
Response to Crises: The Power of Direct Response
Negative publicity crises can start as a simple reference and quickly evolve into something much bigger. Radio & TV Monitoring serves as an alert system for brand communication and PR managers. Organisations are able to trace negative developments before they evolve into serious crises and take measures immediately. Such direct response contributes to protecting reliability and the trust that the public has placed in one’s brand.
Understanding Competition
Understanding the strategy of its competitors is crucial for every business, as it allows it to stay competitive and always informed about the market’s moves. Radio & TV Monitoring offer businesses the chance to better understand their competitors’ publicity tactics and methodology, and evaluate the impact of their Radio and TV campaigns.
Moreover, further and in-depth data analysis, such as Share of Voice (SoV) and sentiment analysis, offer valuable information about the way a business compares with its competition, as well as about the way in which the public sees its competitors. Such information allows businesses to identify market gaps, adjust their strategies and create more targeted campaigns to maximize their publicity.

With the turn of the year, businesses are faced with a unique opportunity: to evaluate their brands’ publicity through comprehensive Publicity Reports. These annual overviews are not just a publicity debrief, but are a strategy tool for the coming year and help identify important insights.
Clip News, an AMEC (International Association for Measurement and Evaluation of Communication) award winner, provides 360° solutions in Media Monitoring, Digital Listening and Publicity Reporting, highlighting the importance of annual reports for a comprehensive publicity inventory.
What are Annual Publicity Reports?
Annual Publicity Reports collect and analyze media data concerning a brand and its direct competitors. It is possible to include data from all media (internet, social media, print, radio and TV), while significant emphasis is placed on the combination of quantitative and qualitative metrics, such as:
- Buzz: Volume of publicity references
- Sentiment analysis: Rating of references as positive, neutral, negative
- Key topics, trends, volume over time, top authors, source impact
- Competition analysis: Analysis of competition publicity with comparative insights, e.g. Share of Voice (SoV)
This data is essential for PR, communication and marketing professionals to understand how the public perceives their brands and to identify opportunities or threats.
The Value of Publicity Analysis
Annual data alone are not sufficient to provide clear guidance. They need analysis and interpretation to turn them into useful information to support strategy. Clip News provides experienced media analysts and leverages innovative technologies such as Machine Learning and AI to produce reports with actionable insights. An annual Publicity Report can answer key questions for any brand:
- Which topics or actions generated the most publicity?
- What were the top sources or channels of publicity?
- Which topics received negative commentary?
- Who were the top influencers?
- How did social media users respond to your campaigns?
Strategic Excellence
Publicity Reports offer valuable insights into your brand image in the marketplace. Utilizing comparative data, trends and qualitative analysis of information, they allow for more effective strategies to:
- Strengthen brand awareness
- Prevent and manage PR crises
- Product and service improvement
- Planning targeted actions
The specialization in Annual Publicity Reports
Clip News provides customized annual reports that meet the needs of each brand. The cooperation with leading international partners, such as Brandwatch Consumer Intelligence Platform, as well as the continuous upgrade of the Clip News Portal for media monitoring, ensure high quality and reliable data.
Looking ahead to 2025
Leveraging a Publicity Report with annual data helps businesses start the new year with confidence. It is the tool that equips executives with the knowledge they need to achieve their goals and maintain their competitive advantage. Because success is always about data and strategy.

Kimberly Guilfoyle, the new US Ambassador to Greece, has been the subject of intense publicity and commentary. Her professional journey – from her career as a prosecutor and FOX anchorwoman to her relationship with Donald Trump Jr. – has garnered the interest of Greek and international media, creating a rich field for analysis through Digital Listening tools.
Digital Listening: the Secret to Managing Publicity
Clip News analysts, leveraging the Brandwatch platform, processed and analyzed thousands of data from news sites, blogs, forums and social media in Greece (a total of 10,182 mentions on the topic) for the period 10-19 December 2024. Our analysis revealed valuable insights into Kimberly Guilfoyle’s publicity! Our approach included:
- Searching and tracking references on the topic with advanced queries.
- Editing references to categorize individual topics.
- Sentiment Analysis to identify positive, negative and neutral references.
- Quantitative and qualitative mapping of publicity.
Evolution: How Publicity Developed
Publicity for Kimberly Guilfoyle fluctuated significantly, with the highest peak of references occurring on 11 December. The analysis revealed the following:
- References exploded on the day the nomination was announced.
- A steady downward trend in publicity until 16 December.
- Stabilization of references on social networks, while news media showed a new, but not strong, increase.
Kimberly Guilfoyle gained publicity through her communication with Archbishop Elpidophoros of America, a classic move of diplomats coming to Greece. Equally important publicity was received by Trump Jr.’s mention of her abilities and personality in a highly positive to laudatory tone.
Sentiment Analysis and Top Topics
Digital Listening revealed that negative sentiment dominated Twitter and Facebook, with a ratio of 2:1 against positive references. An analytical look at the data highlighted three key areas of negative publicity:
- Statements by Kimberly Guilfoyle in 2015, disparaging the behavior and habits of Greeks.
- Comments about her appearance on FOX, often with a sexist tone.
- Strongly pointing out the fact that, as a former fiancée of Trump’s son, and a family member in the broad sense, she was chosen to be Ambassador to Greece – a country not considered important enough for the US to be represented by a member of the diplomatic corps.
The Reaction of the Greek Media
A look at the Greek websites, given their prestige and credibility, which gave weight and significant visibility to the issue, brings the following news media to the top of the ranking: protothema.gr, enikos.gr, newsbomb.gr, topontiki.gr. Without presenting substantial differences between them, the mix of topics and approach of these media is characterized by careful formulations of professional journalism.
It is worth mentioning, however, that there were some analysts – mainly in the press and broadcast media – who made reference to the fact that diplomatic work in embassies is produced by career diplomats. In contrast, a “glamorous” choice like Kimberly Guilfoyle does not determine the political outcome. However, these analysts formulate sentiment after the first period’s “cloud” of online publicity has been completed with the news release.
Digital Listening and Public Image Management
Although no specific policy predictions can be made based on the publicity data, our analysis makes it clear that Guilfoyle will need to take initiatives to reverse the negative image initially created in the Greek media and especially in social networks.
With the right tools, such as the Brandwatch platform, and the strategic use of publicity data, answers are offered for effective publicity management. In the case of Kimberly Guilfoyle, insights helped to understand the sentiment of the audience and the issues they care about most.
Digital Listening is proving to be an indispensable tool for public image analysis. It allows brands and public figures to identify areas for improvement and develop targeted communication strategies that enhance their reputation.
