This was short and shallow, but it still linked to an ongoing community discussion, which a press release almost certainly would not. Even in Wikimedia controversies, Wikinews has a responsibility to report the facts fairly and neutrally. Press releases would affect the perception, if not the goal.
Agreed. A good press release, IMHO, is entirely POV ;-). Let Wikinews originate its own press releases if the need arises (ie. about Wikinews), let the other "porjects" and "bodies" of the Wikimedia world originate theirs.
