  • Comment: In fact, I will let another reviewer decide as this is already covered in the page on Native advertising where the information can be expanded. CNMall41 (talk) 19:10, 2 August 2023 (UTC)
  • Comment: This topic is likely notable but needs work to show it. I would advise to stop adding commercial/spam references and stick to more WP:RSes. There are plenty of books that discuss the topic as well. CNMall41 (talk) 19:09, 2 August 2023 (UTC)
  • Comment: It is a mistake to equate native advertising with brand journalism. In all definitions of brand journalism, the adherence of this style of content production to journalistic standards is emphasized and news content is considered as one of the main contents of brand journalism. Such clarifications have not been done so far from native advertising and it seems that brand journalism needs an independent article.Wikijournalistt (talk) 20:03, 2 August 2023 (UTC)

Brand journalism is a form of journalism that involves brands creating news content.[1] It is a form of storytelling meant to attract people to a company without sounding like advertising.[2]

Background

Brand journalists create and distribute news, stories, interviews, analysis, articles, and various types of content in a way that aims to attract, educate, inspire, or informing the target audience of the brand about its values, mission, products or services.[3] The term brand journalism is mostly used for the use of journalistic methods by a company or an organization for the indirect, non-intrusive promotion.[4]
