Failing to meet compliance standards is costing brands credibility and audience retention

#BrandedNewsrooms #VisualStorytelling #ImageCompliance #PRTechSolutions #JournalistTools #MediaEngagement

A startling discovery has emerged: nearly all branded online newsrooms in the U.S. including those of the world’s most beloved brands and even the White House, fail to meet basic Media image management compliance standards. This includes missing or incorrect metadata for copyright and attribution, improper file sizes and formats, and inadequate visual resources for journalists.

Compliance Gaps in the Most Trusted Brands

For journalists, these lapses present a significant obstacle. Compliance with metadata and licensing standards is crucial to avoiding copyright violations, yet newsroom visuals often fall short. As a result, journalists are left scrambling for usable, compliant assets, ultimately limiting their ability to craft compelling visual narratives.

Audience Engagement at Risk

Research shows that first-time visits account for 60-70% of traffic to branded newsrooms, driven by search engines, social media, and referrals. However, returning visits, a key indicator of audience loyalty, represent just 30-40%. This data underscores the urgency of delivering accessible, high-quality visual resources that encourage repeat engagement. The lack of image management technology is driving journalists away, eroding trust, and costing brands invaluable opportunities to connect with their audience.
