The Angel Promise

PR Campaign
Thursday 29th October, 2026

Angel Studios introduced “The Angel Promise”, a content policy barring on-screen sex and nudity, F-words and misuse of God’s name in its original films and series. It also gave its paying members a vote on what gets released, with titles needing at least 70 out of 100 to make the cut—turning the studio’s audience into an explicit check on Hollywood’s content standards.

Why it worked: It flipped the usual gatekeeping by giving 3 million paying members a veto—clear, quantifiable conflict with Hollywood norms and timing.

The lesson: Consider offering a public, numbers-backed veto or greenlight by your audience, then pitch the first decision as the news hook.

What is this?

Every day, brands launch PR campaigns and the media covers them. We scan lots of different news sources and use AI to spot the campaigns behind the stories, and show you which ones are getting the most traction right now. Think of it as a live leaderboard of what's working in PR.

Where does the data come from?

Finchling is a news monitoring tool that analyses lots of news from across the internet.

Does this track sponsored posts, or is it earned media only?

It's built to only track earned media - we use AI to filter out anything that we think is a sponsored placement.

What does "ranked by coverage" mean?

It's ranked by the volume of coverage that talks positively about the campaign. We count the outlets covering it, then give a boost to campaigns whose coverage is positive, and those with negative coverage drop down. We're not weighting by outlet size or reach.
