OK! TV Entertainment News Show Brings on It Girl PR and DirectFire Media
It Girl PR and DirectFire Media Join OK! TV for Public Relations, Communications, and Talent Booking.
- (1888PressRelease) June 17, 2014 - OK! TV brings on two industry veterans, It Girl Public Relations and DirectFire Media, to compliment the rapidly growing power positive outlet.
"We are thrilled to work with such amazing industry advisors and look forward to maximizing their expertise in furthering our brand message and our relationships to celebrities, charities and brands," said Senior Executive Producer, Mark Berryhill.
The new kid on the block in entertainment television, OK! TV, is setting a new foundation when it comes to integrity with celebrity reporting.
"We hear from many publicists we work with, that it can be difficult when dealing with producers or editors promising one thing and then packaging something completely different. At OK! TV we are committed to working alongside our talent and their representatives to produce amazing and positive segments. Additionally, we are one of the few agencies that support Kristen Bell's initiative on keeping unapproved photos of celebrity children out of the press," said Linda Carrasquillo, Executive Producer.
It Girl PR has been a leading boutique agency for 14 years working with top brands (LG, Red Bull, Days of our Lives) and celebrities (Kelly Rowland, Nelly, La Toya Jackson, Nick Carter, Sharon Stone) in navigating the ever-changing public relations landscape and helping them define their brand while capturing and engaging their audiences.
"OK! TV is solidifying its position as the place for positivity amongst the celebrity news shows and we are excited to further communicate their message of getting great stories while practicing integrity. I look forward to advising them." Juliette Harris, CEO of It Girl PR.
OK! TV has also enlisted Executive Director and Partner of DirectFire Media, Susan Lawlor, alongside DirectFire Media CEO, Braden Toomy, to assist with talent booking and celebrity wrangling. Lawlor brings extensive booking experience from NBC News, Dr. Phil, Sharon Osbourne, Extreme Makeover, Corbis Entertainment, Splash TV, FOX (Hell's Kitchen), Reelz, Participant TV, CelebBuzz, The Weather Channel, Terra, Take Part, Relativity Digital, NuvoTV, TV Guide Network (TVGN), Huffington Post Live, and over 25 AOL properties.
"The entertainment magazine space needs an outlet that talent can trust to promote projects with integrity and without salacious headlines," said Lawlor.
