请根据短文的内容，回答题。 Publicity
Public relations are a broad set of planned communications about the company, including publicity releases, designed to promote goodwill and a favorable image.
Publicity then is part of public relations when it is initiated by the fro-n, __________ .(46). Since public relations involve communications with stockholders, financial analysts, government officials, and other noncustomer groups, they are usually placed outside the marketing department, perhaps as a staff department or outside consulting firm reporting to top management. This organizational placement can be a limitation because the public relations department or consultant will likely not be in tune with marketing efforts.

Many factors impact on the public image. Many of these have to do with the way the firm does business, __________ (50). Public relations and directed publicity may help highlight favorable newsworthy events, and may even succeed in toning down the worst of unfavorable publicity, but the other components of the public image mix create more lasting impressions.
