A trip or event set up to entertain the press and sometimes elected officials. Serious journalists are wary of these as it may, or at least appear to, color their coverage of company or group wining, dining, transporting, or otherwise providing "something of value. "

A press junket is normally when there is a new movie coming out. The stars of the movie will go to one location, maybe a hotel, and different news media will come to them to discuss the movie. They may also show the movie at a press junket to get the media familiar with the work.
