newsflow

n.

The flow of announcements and press releases put out by a company, and the news stories generated by these announcements.

Example Citation:

"[Press releases] describe progress — less often, lack of it — in getting new drugs to market. There is even a special term — newsflow — to define productivity. A biotech company with positive newsflow has generated a blizzard of upbeat releases. This should push up the share price, comforting shareholders during the wait for dividend payments to begin."

— "Welcome to the world of newsflow and burn rates," The Financial Times (London)
