Having said this, here are some types of submissions which are acceptable for posting on GROONG:
We do not accept "Press Releases" from individuals. Those are
considered "Letters". Please read the current
guidelines for submitting Letters to Groong. PRs from companies
are basically advertisements and we don't accept them, unless it's an
announcement for a free public service or event or some such. See
Rule #1
Dinners, dances, banquets, galas, fundraisers, popular singers/kef
nights, and most events with more than a couple of dollars for an
entry fee or donation: forget it. GROONG is not an ad-space. Rarely,
a ticketed event might be considered on a case by case basis, in
which case please consult Rule #1 above.
GROONG is always looking for quality content, and a meaningful
Critical Review is considered a fair exchange for the announcement.
Due to wide interest in world events, we post those items directly
and only on our website under World News.

A PR is used to convey information about the organization and its
activities. It may not be used as a forum for activism, calls to
action, partisanship, or as a platform for editorializing between quotes.
In case of a nominal fee, Do NOT include the fee/price/donation. Your
letterhead should include information which may be used to
contact the appropriate people for such info.
No new publication or new website announcements, or new issues or
website updates.
