Which of the four PR models set out below is used most by practitioners ?

This question was previously asked in
MH SET 2023 Paper 2 Computer Science and Applications Question Paper (26-Mar-2023)
The correct answer is

Press Agentry

Grunig and Hunt described four models of public relations: press agentry/publicity, public information, two-way asymmetric and two-way symmetric.

Press agentry is one-way propaganda aimed at getting publicity, often with little concern for complete truth; surveys by Grunig found it to be the model practised most widely by practitioners, especially in sports, entertainment and product promotion.

Public information is one-way dissemination of accurate information, two-way asymmetric uses research to persuade, and two-way symmetric aims at mutual understanding - the ideal model, but one practised far less often.

Hence, the answer is Press Agentry.
