It provides the opportunity for input from scientists, colleagues, collaborators, managers and the all-important investors (who may not want the story or their involvement released). The media release could also be directly circulated to Members of Parliament or Ministers of the Crown, advisory committees and other scientists and non-scientists within the organisation including members of the board of directors.
