Final Answer :
D
Explanation :
A traditional press release should follow a customary pattern for a positive message which presents the good news first, followed by details and a positive close. It should also be written in a neutral, objective tone and avoid self-congratulatory language. It is not necessarily written directly to the ultimate audience, as it may be distributed through various channels such as news wires or online press release distribution sites.
